Drinking games are usually a group thing, but some of the best ones work perfectly for two. A little competition, a lot of questions, and a drink as the stakes. Here are 12 drinking games for couples. (Swap drinks for sips of soda, bites of chocolate or kisses anytime.)

Question-based drinking games

1. Never have I ever

2. Truth or drink

3. Most likely to

Read a question, both point. Whoever gets pointed at drinks. If you both point at yourselves, cheers.

4. Love quiz shots

Ask questions about each other. Wrong answer, drink.

Six cups each, one-on-one. Every sink, your partner drinks. Every miss, a dare.

Guess if the next card is higher or lower. Wrong guess, drink.

Three options every turn. The spicier the question, the more tempting the drink.

Card games or trivia. Losers choose: an item of clothing or a sip.

12. Compliment or chug

Take turns giving compliments. Hesitate or repeat one, drink.

Drink responsibly

• Pace yourselves with small sips, not full drinks.
• Keep water on the table and alternate.
• Eat before and during.
• Never drive after drinking. Plan to stay in.
• Non-alcoholic versions work just as well: the game is the fun part.
