In America, we often use the expression
>Grape or grain, but ne'er the twain
It means that, if you are going to drink, then you should drink either wine or whiskey, but not both (otherwise you will get too drunk). Do you have similar expressions in your country?

The only similar expression we have is related to the order of drinking when combining wine and beer.
