The liquor consumption must be in optimal amount suitable to individual’s body constitution and should not cause vitiation of [[dosha]].  

Good liquor is prepared from multiple ingredients of varied qualities which have diverse actions to help regulate the three ''doshas'' and prevent their vitiation, which may occur in case of use of single ingredient. Sushruta mentioned that the increase or decrease of the ''dosha'' is mainly influenced by the ingredients (''dravya'') of liquor. Therefore, manufacturing liquor with multi-component of varied quality substances will help to maintain state of homeostasis.
