I hope you give this low carb cosmo a try. It has similar vibes, but calls for citrus vodka and a splash of cranberry juice. While alcohol on a keto diet can knock you out of ketosis, I do like a glass of wine or keto cocktails on the weekend. But that is totally up to you. If you enjoy the Kamikaze, you may also like the Cosmopolitan. Though I would suggest you use a good brand because you are using a good bit of it.
