Is mixing drinks actually bad?
December 29, 2017 by Stephen Bright, The Conversation
 
We’ve all heard mixing drinks can make you ill, is there any truth to this? Credit: www.shutterstock.com

As we enjoy the festive season, many strongly-held beliefs about avoiding hangovers are thrown around. One is that mixing different types of drinks is likely to make you feel unwell during your drinking session and contribute to a worse hangover.

There are sayings like "beer before liquor, never been sicker. Liquor before beer, you're in the clear", or "wine before beer will make you feel queer, but beer before wine and you'll feel fine".

Seems to me to be a question a novice would ask...those of us who have a bit of experience in this area know the question is not mixing drinks but who mixes them and who buys... :shrug:
