Alcoholic beverage

Alcoholic beverage is a drink that can make adults feel happy and relaxed, but it is not good for kids because it can harm their bodies and brain. The drink is made from things like fruits, grains, or vegetables, and the special ingredient called alcohol that can make people feel different.

When people drink alcoholic beverages, they have to be careful because it can make them feel dizzy, sleepy, or sick if they drink too much. Some grown-ups like to have alcoholic beverages with their meals or when they are having a good time with their friends, but they always have to be responsible and not drink too much.

Also, it is important to remember that kids should never drink alcoholic beverages because their bodies are not strong enough to handle it, and it can cause a lot of damage to their health. It's always better for kids to stick to healthy and non-alcoholic drinks like water, juice, or milk.
