I agree, prosecco and champagne. Apparently it’s the bubbles but nothing gives me a hangover like it Envy

BitchQueen90 · 26/08/2018 21:33

Vodka gives me the worst head, I'm actually OK with wine!

Stephisaur · 26/08/2018 21:33

Gin.

My god, I cannot hack gin. Unfortunately, I love it 😂

andantecantabile · 26/08/2018 21:34

Definitely prosecco!

I’m fine with prosecco. It’s wine with sulphites in which do me.

But best thing is to drink water between booze and eat!

Heavy reds or v sharp whites - v different but equally awful hangovers.

And tequila ☠️

Riotheparrott · 26/08/2018 21:40

apparently it's something to do with the fizz? makes you absorb alcohol quicker.

White wine

SprogletsMum · 26/08/2018 21:42

Gin!
I've only had gin once, but the hangover was the stuff of nightmares. Never, ever again.

Livingthedream12345 · 26/08/2018 21:43

Prosecco. Gives me a really bad headache. Cider is not a friend either. I shall stick to the wine....from Aldi...Grin

Racecardriver · 26/08/2018 21:46

Wine gives me headaches and hangovers. Mixed spirits e.g. Vodka/whisky/whatever mixed with water/milk/juice/whatever makes me queasy. Good quality spirts make me drunk but never give me a hangover.

userxx · 26/08/2018 21:46

Aldi do organic wine, apparently hangover free...... lies.

QueenOfMyWorld · 26/08/2018 21:48

Champagne

MsHomeSlice · 26/08/2018 21:51

I had a CherryB once, woke up with the MOST banging head ever

I had bought them as a jokey present for my mother, a babycham and a CherryB, she drank the Babycham , I had the CherryB ...never again

I think the other one might still be on my shelf of doom, I will look tomorrow

I can spend all day drinking prosecco and/or champagne to no ill effect whatsoever, I think that agrees with me...like healthfood! :o

I love it when you have been drinking all day and all evening and you open your eyes the next day full of trepidation and realise you feel as fresh as a daisy!!
Nothing worse than an undeserved hangover, when you only had one or two and wake up as if death would be a blessed relief.

Tequila, after downing 1/2 a pint as a bet at uni, seeing a bottle gives me PTSD

EnthusiasmIsDisturbed · 26/08/2018 21:53

Gin

It makes me very ill

I had a sangria I wasn’t aware there was gin in it. I was sick and later my head was hurting so much I thought something was seriously wrong Blush

Even the smell hurts my head like a warning sign

oldbirdy · 26/08/2018 21:55

Prosecco and new world wine. Think it's the sulphites in the wine. Older French wines seem to be the best for me.

ifancyagreencard · 26/08/2018 21:57

I'm with oldbirdy - Prosecco and Australian wine!

PennyLaneIsInMyHeart · 26/08/2018 21:59

I have only had gin on one night out and I will NEVER touch the bloody stuff again. Have never felt so I'll in my life

SerenDippitty · 26/08/2018 21:59

Cheap rose wine.

PinguPengo · 26/08/2018 22:02

Red wine. On a bad day a single glass will make me feel headachey. Thankfully I have no such problems with white wine. Grin

Figgygal · 26/08/2018 22:02

Gin

Which is a shame as I love it. I'm ok drinking it as home but have it on a night out gives me headaches and makes me sleepy

FreeButtonBee · 26/08/2018 22:04

Red wine 😱😱😱

Gin doesn’t give me a headache but does make me really depressed. I am allowed one as an aperitif and no more.

Prosecco is killer although I can (and have in my wonderful pre child life) drunk gallons of champagne and danced out of my bed the next morning. I wish those days still existed
