Cheesecake Factory's skinny drinks are about 150 calories
In a nation obsessed with calories, The Cheesecake Factory — best-known for its big portions — has a new, slimmed-down trick up its sleeve: Skinny Cocktails.
Today, the upscale casual dining chain unveils plans to roll out a "skinny" line of its five most popular cocktails later this month, made with about half the calories. Margaritas and mojitos that are usually 300 calories will be cut to about 150.
"We think it could create a whole new beverage category," says Mark Mears, Cheesecake's marketing chief.

if you need to shave 150 calories from your diet, then why are you drinking in the first place? i love cheesecake factory, awesome food, excellent cheesecake, but - this is important - i don't go to cheesecake because i want to lose weight. anyone who does is a moron or is in serious denial.
this is like ordering a large fries, big mac and a DIET coke
