It's not unusual to order vodka soda when you want a healthier option when you're drinking. Vodka soda is, in fact, a low-calorie cocktail, and it's the favourite of lazy bartenders and dieters. It uses just two ingredients, soda water - also known as club soda - and vodka. Since soda water is nothing but carbonated water, it’s hands down the healthiest mixer for vodka. You can optionally garnish vodka soda with a lime or lemon wedge for an extra bit of citrus.
