Everything you think you know about boozing is wrong.

It seems like every time we're out with friends on a Saturday night, we hear the same old adages about our alcoholic beverages. Drinking a beer? Better not have a cocktail. Feeling sick? Have a cup of coffee. But, not surprisingly, these old remedies and sayings hold few truths.

Mental Floss compiled some of the most prevalent misconceptions about our favorite adult libations and got the hilarious host of the web series My Drunk Kitchen, Hannah Hart, to debunk them. Hart's web series, as the title suggests, centers around her attempting to cook a meal while also getting very drunk. Who better to educate the world on this subject?
