BuzzBallz Calories
Most BuzzBallz labels do not list calories, so there is no single number printed on the can. What we can say for sure is how many calories come from the alcohol alone, and what the few labels that do list calories state.
Alcohol has about 7 calories per gram, according to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism. A 200 ml BuzzBallz at 15% ABV has about 170 calories from alcohol before any sugar or juice.
Calories From the Alcohol in Each BuzzBallz Size
- Chiller (wine-based) (187 ml, 15% ABV, 1.6 standard drinks): about 150 calories from alcohol
- Regular BuzzBallz (200 ml, 15% ABV, 1.7 standard drinks): about 170 calories from alcohol
- Biggies Chillers (1.5 L, 15% ABV, 12.7 standard drinks): about 1,240 calories from alcohol
- Biggies Cocktails (1.75 L, 15% ABV, 14.8 standard drinks): about 1,450 calories from alcohol
These are minimums. A sweet flavor made with juice or sugar has more calories than the alcohol alone, and that part is not printed on most labels.

The Skinny line is the one place the registry labels print a Serving Facts box, per 5 fl oz (148 ml): Skinny Rita 133 calories (4.8 g carbs), Skinny Paloma 133, and Skinny Mojito 137 (4.9 g carbs). Skinny means artificial sweeteners, not less alcohol: the labels still state 15% ABV. A 200 ml can is a little more than one serving. The labels come from the TTB public COLA registry, and the artwork can differ from your can.
