This is something people from countries where people drink primarily hard liquor (Russia, Finland, much of Eastern Europe) know pretty well even if they don't know how to explain it. Another trick is to watch _what_ you eat. Meat and fat stay in the stomach for much longer, so if you focus on that, alcohol won't hit your liver all at once.
