Week 195: My favourite alcoholic drink is...

Good evening hivers, I wish you a happy and blessed weekend... Next I share with you my participation in the fantastic proposals that our friend @galenkp presents us every weekend, I say goodbye with a big hug... let's get started!

My favourite alcoholic drink is...

I am not a person who is used to drink daily, many times I hear that people drink socially referring to the weekends, in my case I give more importance to my feelings, during the week when I feel very tired maybe I take a cold beer to refresh myself, in my fridge I do not usually have alcoholic beverages, I take advantage that near my house I have supermarkets nearby and I go out to buy the drink that at that moment I enjoy.

Focusing on the question about my favorite alcoholic beverage, it is undoubtedly red wine. I learned the culture of drinking red wine during the years I lived in Spain. I will tell you my reasons why red wine is my favorite beverage... Whenever I have a glass of red wine I think of the properties it has, among its benefits it prevents hypertension, I have also read that it helps reduce cholesterol and it is a drink rich in antioxidants. I will not continue to explain in detail all the benefits, the important thing is that it is not a drink that negatively affects our body, but it is an ally that offers many benefits.

Something I love about red wine, is that I can enjoy it in different ways, sometimes I pour myself a glass and drink it dry without ice, there is a drink that I really like and it is very refreshing, I knew it in Spain, when summer comes and the heat is very intense, people usually prepare the tinto de verano, this drink consists of mixing red wine with lemon flavored soda, I have tried to prepare my version and I loved it, I use red wine and put sparkling water, lime juice and lemon juice in it.

What I look for when drinking an alcoholic beverage is that the next day it does not give me a hangover or discomfort, with the wine I wake up in the morning feeling good, of course I must say that I drink prudently since all excesses will end up giving an unfavorable result and if If you drink a bottle of wine, you will most likely feel bad.

A small glass of red wine with lunch or dinner is a drink that I usually enjoy, I don't usually drink it every day, but when it provokes me it is a good choice for me.
