Bacardi and diet coke only had 19 calories.

This isn't necessarily true.
I always see billboards advertising "Bacardi and diet cola: 0 calories." However, when your body metabolizes alcohol it turns into sugar (something to this effect).

Fitday.com lists 1 fl oz of rum/vodka/etc. as having 64 calories.

A shot is actually 1.5 oz, so we're actually talking about ~100 calories

No matter what you drink, the equivalent of 1 beer, 1 shot, 1 glass of wine, etc. is going to have at least 100 calories. Alcohol contains calories no matter what other liquid it is mixed with. So if you want to get drunk, you're gonna need to consume some calories.

If you must drink, I think you are better off just drinking Bud Light since it will dehydrate you less than mixed drinks.
