Why does tequilla give bad hangovers; what is in that sh*t other than agave?

Question

especially jose cuervo!!

Answer 1

Ok kids, What causes a hangover again?  ALCOHOL

What specifically causes you to feel like sh*t in the morning? Dehydration and the loss of all those vitamins your body needs to function that you peed out last night with all those drinks.

I agree, there's nothing worse than a bad hangover, especially when you're drinking c**p like jose cuervo.  In my opinion, I've known certain well tequilas to rate better than cuervo on the taste and hangover meter.  Try some decent tequila.  Anything made by Sauza is a good start, and remember that Quality and Quantity of what you are drinking have a LOT to do with your hangover.  If you don't believe me, try downing a half bottle of Absolut.  You'll have the same wonderful feeling in the morning as if you had the same amount of Cuervo.  They're both on the same 'c**p' level, and target naiive  audiences with good marketing schemes for a third-rate product.

Answer 2

It's a myth that it's the minor ingredients in booze that cause a hangover. The fact is, it's the alcohol.

Answer 3

I've been in Mexico and had NO hangovers. And in the Caribbean drinking rum - the same thing! Maybe it's the boat!

I just can't figure it out!

There's nothing in Tequila besides Agave, or, hopefully, Blue Agave.

Hangover are caused by cogeners, the c**p left over from the sugars in alcohol. Drink Añejo straight and you'll have few!

Answer 4

Because Cuervo is cheap, and is generally not a pure agave, which has less impurities and toxins.

Learn to drink the good stuff, and in moderation.

Answer 5

Come on, we know why. It's those d**n Mexican radicles. That's why you need free radicles. Like the ones that live in extremely high priced champaign. No hangover but what a price to pay.

Also,Petrone kicks ars. The cheap c**p will leave you bledding from an orffice or two.Sometimes even external bleeding. "OH! Sht, I don't even remember writing this and why are my knuckles bleeding. I gotta go, I need another shot."

Answer 6

Tequila is the only thing that doesn't give me a hangover.  I guess it's different for different people.

Answer 7

If you drink it straight, you'll be less likely to get a hangover.  It's all the sweet stuff that gives the hangover, like lime juice, margarita mix, sugar, etc.
