With champagne, you have the least chance of a hangover

Champagne is quite the attractive lady among drinks, isn't it? Luxurious, charming, cozy, festive, popular... Everyone gets cheerful from a glass full of golden glitter fun.

Feeling like having a jolly time through the month of December? Just pour a glass of bubbles. You definitely won't regret it. Because, pop away... Champagne doesn't give you a terrible hangover. Good news, then, for everyone who enjoys a bit of sparkle in their glass. With organic wine and champagne, your liver has to break down the least chemicals, so that makes a big difference for the hangover the next day. Also, the better the champagne, the less headache you get from it. So it's worth it to buy an expensive bottle for the holidays.

So why do you sometimes still wake up with a head like a bowling ball after drinking champagne, at friends' or family or your love at home? That often happens because the champagne is too old: on average, a bottle is only good for one year. But as it goes with those kinds of things: that nice and festive bottle of champagne gets passed around from one to another. Admit it: you've also pulled one from your fridge to take to a birthday. Or a work gathering. Or a Christmas party. And then those bottles are there before you know it. Christmas after Christmas in the cupboard. In everyone's cupboard. The quality then decreases and that's enough for that hangover. And waking up crying on New Year's Day and loudly cursing the new year while you're hanging over the toilet is unfortunately the result.

So the wise lesson this year: just drink all your bottles of champagne. A bit of indirect risk reduction for that hangover. Look, that's smart.
