You are also welcome to consume the corresponding quantity of any other beverage with the same amount of spirit in total. For instance 100150 grams of whiskey are equivalent to 400500 grams of a natural (1012%) wine. Your organism must feel the alcohol effect and wait its finish (approximately 2 hours). After that you are advised to eat well. Then drinking much enough is possible since the body has the resources to repulse the alcohol attack.

THE COMMANDMENT # 4
No secret that mixing of drinks often leads to more stunning effect than the same portion of the strongest ingredient. Try to refrain from mixing of drinks. When the mixing is unavoidable its essential to take drinks starting from the weakest and finishing with the strongest one. For example one may have a glass of wine after 2 mugs of beer but not vice-versa. The reasonable behavior is to drink cocktails as well as taste unknown snacks at the beginning of the entertainment. You can justify such actions saying that being tipsy its impossible to estimate the cuisine as it deserves. And one more: if a tipsy person gets outdoors in cold season and breathes in fresh air he/she usually becomes blind drunk. The reaction is not as expected so air therapy may even lead to faint.
