Champagne: That little flute of Champagne has about 90 calories bubbling in it. That’s going to cost you ten body rolls. But maybe you are at a wedding and you are dancing to everyone’s favorite songs like the YMCA and the Cha-Cha Slide. If this is the case, omit the extra body rolls and have a piece of wedding cake.

Mojito: This Latin drink packs a few more calories at about 150. If you are drinking Mojitos, you are probably doing body rolls anyway- but be prepared for about 16 extra to burn off those minty, sugary, delicious rum calories. (The Mojito has about the same amount of calories as does a Cosmopolitan, Sangria, Cape Cod, and a Gin and Tonic. So, order up, and begin the slow wave like motion starting at the head, and ending at the feet.)
