Pee colors when under the influence vs sober

423 views

I apologize in advance, but I’m writing this crossed and I didn’t want to forget my question.

Can someone please explain to me why, that when I’ve had a couple/too many drinks my pee is crystal clear, however the next morning my pee is the color of pee from the sewer combined with the ocean?

TLDR; how does hydration work?

These answers are close but not quite there. Alcohol is directly toxic to the filtering/concentrating system in the kidney tubules, causing you to be unable to concentrate urine (even when your body normally would). This, combined with drunk people wanting to drink anything but water, gives you crystal light at the party, skunky apple juice in the morning.
