Mixing my alcohol?!


Question:

Mixing my alcohol?

I don't drink THAT much. Maybe once or twice a week if I get the opportunity, I'll go out and have a few whatevers with friends. Usually, I'm a big snob. I like good wine. I like (I'm sorry to say, and so is my wallet) expensive beer, and I'm rather exclusive about it too. (blue moon, honeyweiss, 312) and I like top shelf vodka in my cocktails. Grey Goose. I refuse to drink skohl. (I know, stupid snob..)

So here's my problem. Recently when I've been out, if I have have more than one type of alcohold (Beer & wine, wine & hard liquer) I'm ALWAYS sick the next day. No matter how little I have, no matter in what quantities, (Yes, I've followed the rhymes) but still everyone tells me the mixing alcohols thing is an old wives tale.

Is it just a tolerance thing? Can ANYONE settle this once and for all so I can stop getting ill? I'm afraid to drink wine now, because someone said I'm simply sensetive to red wine and wine is my favorite!

Thans David V - but I like to experience ALL my alcohol. The grey goose doesn't get mixed with syrup. About the girliest most complicated thing I order is a classic vodka martini, 2 olives. I like to TASTE alcohol.


Answers:

First off the "rhymes" are true. I've found that if I start with beer I have to stick with it. If I start with booze I can change to beer at any time and then change back. It may just be in my head but I know it works for me. I have and still can drink an entire 1.75 liter of bourbon and still go to work the next day. But if I drink 1 beer before I'm praying to the porclion god. As far as wine I don't really like it...Too fruity. But I would put it in the same catagory as beer. So don't make your first drink wine or beer unless you plan on staying with it. By the way have you tried Honey Brown? It's very good.
