Wine Precontest

Does anyone have experience with this? It's obviously a diruetic and somewhat old school. Does it have to be a certain kind? Red?

I've seen it used backstage to help w/ vascularity and to take the edge off posing in front of 1000's of people. Sambuca is another fave from what i've seen. Other than that, never heard of it being used...

I've had a few people use a little dry red wine as their only fluid the night before and I think it has its merits when used appropriately

ive heard red wine, sambuca, and vodka. but didnt understand the vodka much. i was very ify to try it because i havent had any alcohol since jan. and was in fear of being a "one sip queer" and im irsh so that would give me a pretty bad rep lol

It's not that bad. I really don't like drinking it straight but it's good in espresso. MD 20/20? That brings back memories, I prefer St. Ides precontest.
