Skinny Rum Punch Recipe

Hello and Happy National Rum Punch Day! Who doesn’t love a good cocktail? (If you don’t love a cocktail please call me because I need a designated driver for tonight.)

Before we talk about drinking, let’s talk about running and eating shall we?

We shall.

I had a dentist appointment first thing this morning so I had to make my run quick. Literally. I ended up running 6 miles at a 8:25/mile pace.

The dentist took a while so by the time I got home I was HUNGRY. And more than usual even!

I made a big salad and then finished off the watermelon. This is some quality food styling and photography, you’re welcome.

And to keep up the magical food pics and tips – the S’mores gum from Target is amazing and was on clearance. There was only one packet left or I would have bought 112. These are so good!

Now let’s celebrate Nation Rum Punch Day with a skinny cocktail!

I don’t know if you realize this about me but um… I enjoy an alcoholic beverage every now and then.

Who woulda known that?! (Basically anyone who follows me on FB or Instagram that’s who.)

too much eyeliner is just right

I’m all about enjoying a cocktail every now and then – emphasis on the now. But I realize ‘don’t drink your calories’ is rule #3 of dieting.

Not fair! All the best stuff comes in a cup! Milk shakes, margaritas, boobs, ice cream… get me a cup of each!

But if we’re following the whole  “Everything in moderation” rule – you can occasionally enjoy a spiked beverage. My heart desires a lower calorie option to celebrate National Rum Punch Day! So I whipped one up today with rum, a little juice and no extra sugar. Cheers!
