Well, let me tell you about this delicious picante cocktail that I had recently. It’s called Picante de la Casa and it’s served at Soho House. Now, I’m not usually one to count calories, but I did some research and found out that one serving of this cocktail contains 195 calories.
I have to say, when I first heard the number, I was a bit surprised. I mean, I knew cocktails could be calorific, but I didn’t expect it to be that high. But then again, this drink is packed with flavor, so I guess it’s not too surprising.
The Picante de la Casa is known for its spicy kick, hence the name. It’s made with a combination of tequila, lime juice, agave syrup, and jalapeno peppers. The spiciness from the peppers really adds a unique twist to the drink, and I have to admit, I love it.
Now, let’s break down the calorie count a bit. Tequila itself is not too high in calories, with about 96 calories per 1.5 oz serving. Lime juice and agave syrup also don’t contribute too much to the calorie count. However, it’s the jalapeno peppers that can add up. They contain a small amount of calories, but when you combine them with the other ingredients, it can add a significant amount to the overall calorie count.
But you know what? I’m not going to let the calorie count stop me from enjoying this cocktail. It’s just too good to pass up. Plus, I believe in everything in moderation. So, if I want to indulge in a Picante de la Casa every now and then, I’m going to do it.
In the end, I think it’s all about balance. If you’re conscious of your calorie intake and want to enjoy a picante cocktail like this, maybe just be mindful of what else you’re consuming throughout the day. And hey, if you’re going to have a cocktail, why not make it a delicious one like the Picante de la Casa?
So, there you have it. One serving of Picante de la Casa contains 195 calories. But don’t let that deter you from trying it. Trust me, it’s worth every calorie.
