Alcohol has 6 calories per gram by itself which is in addition to 4 cals for carbs.

Alcohol has negative effects on dieting far beyond simple calories though. The best write up I know of is part of the Chemically Correct series. Part 1 and Part 2

If you still want to diet and drink, the best choice is going to be your favorite hard liquor with diet soda, eg vodka + diet 7up.
