💡 What's interesting
Culturally, it's a staple of American bar culture and a go-to for those seeking a simple, lower-sugar mixed drink. Nutritionally, it's interesting because the 'diet' aspect removes the significant sugar load of a regular Jack and Coke, but the alcohol still contributes about 105 calories per standard shot.
