Default thin ice alcoholic drink

What is this and who makes it? I have heard of it but haven't seen it in the stores. How many carbs are in it. I'd like something other than miller lite/michelob ultra to drink. How many carbs in miller lite? Are they close to ultra?

I love Thin Ice!!!! It is a Sprite like drink and it only has 1 gram of carb per bottle, Ultra has 2.6 grams. I'm not sure which company makes this though.

Its not available everywhere. I emailed them and they said they don't ship yet to Louisiana, but they said they would email me when they started. That was several months ago.

It's not in Canada either -- I just spoke with the company and they said that they are trying to get it across the US first. Oh well, just have to stick with Sleeman's Clear (2.5 grams carbs).

Its manufactured by Long Beach Brewing Company, but they aren't out of California, but somewhere in the Northeast. I have looked for it in Atlanta but haven't found it yet either. Mike

I recently searched the internet and found "Zilch" a no carb Margarita mix. It comes in a little packet so you can take it with you, order some Tequila and some water and mix. It's not bad.....the site only sells this one product, it is not expensive and they process your order promptly.

I know it's here in Canada and I thought it was available in the US, too -- Mike's Light. It's a vodka cooler in lemonade and limeade. It was the first LC bottled drink and just so happened to be my favourite pre-LC drink I hate beer so I'm glad to have the alternative.

If I indulge in a beer it will be a Guiness or Sleemans. I don't have it too often so I make it count when I do. I got sick off of coolers once waaaaaaayyy back when and that was it for me.

Miller Lite has 3.2 carbs per 12oz serving. It's been that way as long as there was a Miller Lite. They didn't just jump on the bandwagon, it's always been low carb. I used to work for a Miller distributor that's why I know.

I believe Miller Genuine Draft 64 has only2.4 carbs and only 64 calories and it's not bad
