There is no doubt your Stag Do a drinking session or 2 are on the cards. Below are a few tips on how you can make sure you’re still standing at the bitter end.
Eating is NOT cheating
Food helps to slow down the body’s absorption of alcohol, meaning less chance of an early trip home. The health department recommends a pre-drink meal that’s high on carbohydrates (such as pasta or rice) or fats, so why not start the evening in an Italian restaurant?
Tactical Drinking
Drinking a glass of water between drinks is great way of staying hydrated and preventing yourself from getting drunk. TOP TIP – avoid fizzy drinks as the bubbles speed up the absorption of alcohol into your system. Downing the occasional water might line you up for a bit of stick from the rest of the party, but you can just tell them it’s neat vodka and they’ll think your superman. Plus, when they pass out you get to write stuff on their face – Go Water!
The Old Switcheroo
The members of your stag party will want to see you imbibe as many drinks as possible, but that doesn’t mean you can’t apply a little sleight of hand to help you keep upright. If you’re being overloaded with more booze than you can drink, why not stash the spares somewhere inconspicuous, or pass them to a sympathetic accomplice for disposal? A well-placed potted plant may be useful for ditching unwanted shots too but be sure to perform by slamming your glass down and pulling a face afterwards.
Don’t Mix
It’s likely you’ll become acquainted with the lesser visited regions of the top shelf during your stag but try and limit the amount of different drinks you try. Different drinks contain different chemicals which, when combined, can cause worse hangovers as your body has to work overtime to deal with all the various substances.
The tactical vomit
OK, so this one’s not so pleasant, but when the time comes, you may need to embrace your inner Roman and get the beast out of your belly in the toilet cubicle. This should absolutely not be a part of a regular night out as vomiting puts a lot of strain on your body, but in the battlefield environment of a stag do, things are going to get ugly.
Just remember to pocket some chewing gum before you leave the house so your breath doesn’t smell like a compost heap for the rest of the night.
