Party season has officially begun. And it’s time to take out that gorgeous dress which you bought from your favourite store, put on your dancing shoes and get the party started! The good thing about the festive season is that you get to party hard with your friends and family, however, the downside is the endless rounds of alcohol wreak havoc on your health. And in case you had too much to drink for too long, it can not only leave you with a problematic liver but also reverse the impact of your months of hard work by increasing your calorie intake (we believe you never saw that coming, right?).

But don’t worry folks. You can limit your calorie intake while partying hard. All you need to do is be a bit careful while ordering your drink. Take a look at the number of calories in each alcoholic drink:
