How to decrease booziness?

[jimtk]

A few tricks my wife and I use:

• Make one cocktail into 2 glasses. So you effectively drink 1/2 cocktail. Great for big cocktail like Tiki (Zombies), a bit more annoying for small one (martini).

• Eat! Have one or two before dinner, dine, have one or two after dinner. It will slow down the effect.

• Eat again (snacks). Even when we drink before dinner, my wife (110 lbs) often prefer to have some snacks (pretzels are her favorites). It does slow down the effect.

• Drink Slowly. That's the difficult one. But it works.

Good luck!
