Speaking to FEMAIL, Australian holistic chef, Lee Holmes, from Supercharged Food, unveiled what alcoholic drinks are most likely to give you a regrettable hangover. 'Ethyl alcohol, or ethanol, is the chemical used in different types of alcohol and can be taxing on the liver,' she said. Drinks containing the substance congeners - such as red wine and darker spirits like bourbon - are considered the 'biggest hangover culprits', Ms Holmes said. 'It’s best to steer away higher concentrations of congeners, which are found more readily in red wine and darker spirits.' Ms Holmes suggested sticking to lighter varieties of alcohol such as higher quality and preservative-free white wines and clear-coloured spirits like gin or vodka.
