I have been advised by an experienced sipper of liquor that a hangover is more likely to occur if the liquor is mixed with sugar (ie fruit juice, tonic water, soda water). I’m a little wary of proving this theory (by drinking pure vodka), but I may have the chance on Saturday.![]()
Hangar One Vodka, yes, the one that’s based in Alameda, always gives weekend tours of their distillery operations. Sounds good, but I’ve always had the darnedest time conscripting a friend to be the designated driver. Apparently the Hangar One folks have heard that excuse before.
