The Best Hangover Tips!Quite simply, live by these rules and your hangovers will be almost non existent! Then you'll be so cool everyone will want you. What to drink and what to mixThe general rule to follow is that the lighter colour the drink, the less of a steaming head you’re likely to have in the morning. Not to mention, the darker drinks, such as red wine, tend to have more congeners, which are chemical impurities but are actually responsible for the taste, flavour and colour of the drink.Congeners are apparently one of the main reasons we tend to wake up feeling like we got punched by Mike Tyson in the head. If you do insist on drinking the darker beverages such as brandy and red wine, at least stick to the same drink all night and don’t mix with beer or other spirits. Try to drink good quality alcohol too, not table wine paint stripper mixed in with low grade industrial brandy. However, there are naturally exceptions to the rule. For example, after drinking some good quality red wine you can still wake up feeling more or less fine, without a headache. Also, rum and tequila are clear drinks, but have been known to give worse headaches than anything else! Beware of exceptions to the rule, they will get you.
Drinks that tend to give less of a headache: Vodka, Gin, lager beer, good white wine, good Scotch whisky. Drinks that can make you feel like a dwarf hit you on the head with a baseball bat: Brandy, red wine, some darker beers, some cheap white wine, bad, cheap whisky, port, rum, tequila
Try to follow the above guidelines. However, you may be different and there are exceptions. I once got an evil hangover from hell from just draught beer! Maybe it was past its sell by date. Also, some red wines are fine, but of course, you don’t know until the next day. As stated above, you should watch out for rum and tequila. Check the bottle to gauge the quality before deciding what you're drinking, use your experience and common sense and go to the next page to find out more good hangover prevention tips.
