One drink in Canada that you will find in most bars is tequila. If you are looking for the best low-carb tequila drinks in Canada, I have you covered. Today we will look at some of the best sugar-free recipes you can try at home that are perfect for those on a keto diet.

Most people, especially those on a diet avoid margaritas fearing the carbs and calories that a glass-full packs. It doesn’t have to be that way.

These recipes are keto-friendly and will satisfy your cocktail cravings without raising your glucose levels. The ingredients used in these recipes are easily available in Canada.

7 Best Low-Carb Tequila Drinks To Try in Canada

1. Skinny Keto Margarita

Perhaps the most simplest and popular drink in Canada on this list is the skinny margarita. The keto version is a delicious spin on a classic margarita without carbs and sugars. So, rest assured as it will not put you out of ketosis.

The fresh lime-flavored drink is made from tequila, lime juice, sweetener, sparkling water, and jalapenos which are optional.

2. Paloma Cocktail

Paloma cocktail is light and fruity with a light pink, and orange color that I love. This keto cocktail is made from fresh grapefruit juice with soda water.

To make a keto Paloma cocktail, you need tequila, grapefruit juice, sparkling water, lime juice, and mint for garnishing. The classical Mexican cocktail only uses tequila and grapefruit soda. There are no artificial sweeteners in the drink.

3. Keto Bloody Maria

Another hearty cocktail that is a wonder when it comes to dealing with hangovers is Bloody Mary but with a twist for those on a low-carb diet or keto.

Bloody Maria is Bloody Mary with tequila instead of vodka. It is meaty, tangy, and sweet in flavor. It requires a few ingredients only such as tequila, tomato vegetable juice, horseradish, smoked hot sauce, lime juice, and pepper.

4. Tequila Mojito

One of the most refreshing summer drinks with fresh mint is mojitos. Traditional mojitos are extremely sweet with high sugar and carb levels.

However, the keto version uses keto sweetener, lime juice, tequila, club soda, and fresh mint. For this recipe, I use Lakanto Classic Monkfruit Sweetener. You can use any keto-friendly sweetener you want.

This fruity cocktail is best for summer. The freshness of lime, and sweetness of strawberries are a perfect combination. I love strawberry-flavored fruity cocktails as they are so refreshing.
