Like 30 years ago we used to have something called “wine coolers”. I don’t really see those anymore. There’s like Smirnoff Ice and Mikes Hard lemonade. Is that pretty much the same thing? Seems like the additional sugar would negate any weight loss when switching from beer.

No, it's just a 50:50 mix of white wine and soda water, so it has about half the calories of white wine. Very easy to drink a lot of in a hot kitchen though, so it's still a lot of wine.
