Interested in finding the cocktails that leave us the most defeated the next morning, experts at OnBuy Drinks created a Cocktail Hangover Index. The linear numeric scale scored each hangover element, such as headaches, sickness and time wasted in bed, on a scale from one to ten. With the results, OnBuy.com was able to discover which cocktail caused the worst hangover.

The Worst Cocktails:

The winner for the most hangover-inducing cocktail is thePornstar Martiniwith a hangover factor of 7.9 out of 10. This passion fruit flavoured, vodka-based cocktail, (with a side shot of prosecco) didn’t score highly in most of the factors, however,it’s high score for time wasted in bed (11hrs)pushed it to claim the title.

Coming in at a close second, the classic vodka-based Sex On The Beach scored6.9. This cocktail will leave you with intense cravings for greasy carbsduring the hangover phase with a factor of 10. This fruity number also scored second for time wasted in bed (9hrs).

In third, Long Island Iced Tea (LIIT)has an overall hangover factor of 6.8.It scores highly across three out of five of the factors;headache(8),dehydration(8.6)and sickness(6.4). This cocktail contains equal parts vodka, tequila, light rum, and gin. It is widely known that mixing alcohols is more likely to bring you to levels of intoxication, so arguably, it is surprising thatLIIT doesn’t take the top spot
