Eli5: does mixing alcohols really make you sick? If it does, why?

I’ve always heard things like liquor before beer. You’re in the clear and that mixing brown and white can go bad, but why are you not supposed to mix alcohols?

No. Alcohol is alcohol and is the ingredient makes you feel sick. Technically, there are other compounds and makeups in wine/beer/liquor but they are not enough to make you sick. Like another redditor said – Nights where multiple alcohols are involved you’re likely drinking to excess and not realizing.

That being said…….

Nobody likes the “akshually☝️” guy at parties, so if someone’s lamenting about how they shouldn’t have mixed rum and tequila last night, don’t correct them and just enjoy your hangover together
