All alcohol yeilds 7 calories per gram!. there are 4 grams in one teaspoon, and 12 grams in one tablespoon!. so you should measure how big your shot glass is, then calculate!. The calories from alcohol are empty calories, they have zero nutritional value, because alcohol is a toxin!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
A 1!.5 oz!. shot of rum has 97 calories in it!. It is the same for most other clear liquors (vodka, tequila, whiskey, etc!.)!.
How it compares to beer in calories depends on the brand and type of beer!. Most regular beers have 150-175 calories for 12 oz, but not all of them!. There are many beers that are very similar in calories to a rum and diet soda, such as:
Natural Light Beer has 97 calories
Miller Lite Beer has 96 calories
Pabst Blue Ribbon Extra Light has 70 calories
Budweiser Select has 99 calories
