Want To Lose Weight? Try Sex On The Peach With An Absolute Hunk
Calorie-counted cocktails give hope to weight-conscious women
Dieting drinkers at a London bar are toasting the latest addition to the cocktail menu - calorie-counted concoctions.
With restaurants across the UK due to start displaying the calorific content of their dishes, Annies Bar in Kentish Town has gone a step further and labelled its liquid assets. The popular drinking hole could be the first in the UK to do so.
"It's proving a hit with our female clientele," says Shaban Arifi, chief mixologist at the North London bar.
"Our patrons prefer a more sophisticated drink so calorie-counted cocktails seemed a smart way of helping them choose from the dozens of drinks on offer."
"A Tartini is just 150 calories, while an Absolute Hunk will really satisfy your sweet cravings and is only 200 calories. People are careful about what they eat and can now watch what they drink, too. It means they can feel less guilty about all those Easter eggs."
Annies Bar offers more than 40 cocktails and shooters in a friendly, lavish setting, as well as a selection of fine wines and beers.
