In general, for healthy people, one drink per day for women and no more than two drinks per day for men would be considered the maximum amount of alcohol consumption to be considered moderate use. (By “healthy” people, we are referring to non-pregnant women, individuals not addicted to alcohol, and people without pre-existing medical conditions, among others). However, the amount of alcohol that a person can drink safely is highly individual, depending on genetics, age, sex, weight and family history, etc. A “drink” is considered to be:
4-5 ounces of wine
10 ounces of wine cooler
12 ounces of beer
1-1/4 ounces of distilled liquor (80 proof whiskey, vodka, scotch, or rum)
I'm including a Web site link -- it includes TONS of good information and should fully answer your question. Too much to copy and paste here!

Your body will tell you the next morning how much is too much. Then, subtract 1 or 2 glasses from that.

Take your weight in lbs and divide by 20. The result will be the number of ounces you can have without any harm being done.
