Cole Porter Was Wrong

You've seen her: you're out at a bar one night and there's this girl with glazy eyes careening through the room. She's obviously had too much to drink and it's far from cute.

As a Bubbly Girl, I like that little tingle that comes from sipping just one glass of sparkling wine. It seems like sparkling wine goes to my head alot faster than other drinks and it turns out it's not just imagination. A study I recently found online shows that we do get a hefty kick from wine with bubbles.

In short, researchers at a university in England found that people who drank fizzyy champagne had higher blood alcohol levels and stayed that way longer than people who drank flat champagne. For more details, check out the study published in New Scientist.

It's a good reminder to know my limits and be very aware of how much I'm drinking... Because a Bubbly Girl is always appropriate.

I love your Bubbly Girl persona. I hope it becomes a household brand. So much better then overly uptight Tony Sinclair (Tanqueray). I must admit though that Bacardi and Cola remain my favorite spirit guides. I guess I have effectively demonstrated my lack of pedigree.
