Drinking alcohol means consuming drinks that contain a substance called alcohol. People might choose to drink alcohol in social situations or to simply relax. It’s common to see people enjoying the taste of drinks like beer or wine with meals at parties.

Moderate drinking, which means not too much, might have some benefits, like relaxing and socializing. But if someone drinks too much, it can cause issues like feeling sick or not making good decisions.

Some people say drinking alcohol too much can lead to issues such as getting addicted or finding it tough to stop. It can also cause accidents or other issues, especially if consumed irresponsibly.
