Choco-lite Cocktail

Some dieters think they save calories by ordering a dessert and a cocktail in one, but has anyone ever lost weight drinking liquefied hot fudge sundaes? Skip the 500 calories found in the average chocolate martini (made with creme de cacao and half and half) -- this lightened-up treat has been pared down in a couple of smart places. Before you pour, line the rim of the glass with syrup for a bit of sweetness with every sip.

1 ounce Godiva chocolate liqueur
1 ounce vodka
1/2 cup nonfat milk
1 teaspoon Hershey's Syrup Lite (for lining rim of glass)

In a shaker, combine chocolate liqueur, vodka, and milk with crushed ice. Shake to mix. Pour into glass.
