These alcoholic drinks make you hornier

The temperatures are starting to rise again, and so is our desire to bask on the terrace with a delicious glass of rosé. The nice weather makes us all a lot happier, and as if that weren't enough, there is also more sexual tension in the air. At least, science claims that there is a connection between warmth and intimacy. And that's actually quite easy to explain, as sunlight increases serotonin levels (the happiness hormone) and people tend to eat healthier during the summer months. All of this contributes to a positive effect on libido, which in turn leads to more sex.

But it's not just the sun that makes us hornier; the drink we have on the terrace contributes to that as well. In fact: the higher the alcohol content, the more confident and sexier we apparently feel. In Great Britain, a study was conducted among 30,000 people about the feelings that alcohol evokes in us. It turned out that strong drinks like vodka, gin, and whiskey give you more energy and make you feel confident and sexy. Wine and beer also have a positive effect; more than half of the participants reported feeling more relaxed after having a glass of these. By the way, red wine is a bit tricky, as it makes quite a few people feel tired. I personally experience that too, and that's why I actually never drink it. Just give me a glass of white.

The next time I sit on the terrace, I will of course immediately order a gin and tonic. Let's see if I suddenly feel incredibly confident afterwards.
