I am turning 21 on July 2. Advice?!


Question: I am turning 21 on July 2!. Advice!?
I never really drank before!. I am 5'5 165 pounds!. What should I drink/not drink!. also don't say "don't drink"!.Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Since you have never drank before, you don't really know how your body will react to it!.

Because of that, I would go for some mild mixed drinks with some sweet fruit juices or soda (maybe vodka/OJ, vodka/cranberry, rum/coke)!. But don't drink those mixed drinks too fast because they go down easy since you generally can't taste the alcohol very much and they will catch up to you (try not to drink more than 1-2 per hour)!.

Definitely don't do shots for your first time drinking because you will be sick and have a hangover !!

One way to reduce the effect of a hangover is to drink a big glass of water (or 2) before going to bed!. also, drink a lot of water/gatorade when you first get up the next morning and take your B vitamins and Advil!.

If you're not a big partier, just have a nice dinner out with friends and/or family and just have some wine or a couple of drinks with your dinner!.

Whatever you do, please don't drive and make sure you have a designated driver who is not drinking!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

During the day be sure to eat something and drink lots of water!. While drinking be very careful of shots, lots of people are going to want to buy them for you, ask for chips that you can use later!. After you get home try to drink some water before you go to sleep and more if you get up in the night!. Booze will dehydrate you so remember to try to drink water to avoid the dreaded hang over!. HAPPY BIRTHDAY and PLEASE DON'T DRIVE!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com

Oh lord almost 21 and never drank!? I would stay far away from gold schlaugers it will make you sick, and rum has awkward effects on some people!. I would go with a Screwdriver(vodka/OJ) or a vodka and cranberry then maybe try tequila the next time you drink!. Most liquors cause hangovers if a lot is drinken!. Just treat it with gatorade, bread and advil!. I promise it helps!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

i wish i was 21 i turned 20 a week ago!. i never really cared about drinking either, but i started when i was 19!. try smirnoff ice for a beginning thats what i did!. it only has 5% alcohol and its not strong at all, you can barely taste the alcohol, you can but just a little bit!. they have flavored ones so i think thats the best to drink for a beginnerWww@FoodAQ@Com

Hangovers are sooo awful! Some people get them more easily than others!. It is mostly your body is dehydrated!.
On a night that you know you will be drinking, make sure to drink lots of water!. also at some liquer stores they have a little bottle of stuff you drink before going to bed, supposed to help you not have a hangover!.
I would reccomend taking it slow your first couple times!.

Really depends on what you like to taste, Malibu and pineapple juice is good!.
Margaritas are another good thing!.
