What is a "Drink?"
It's not how many "drinks" that you have, but how much alcohol that you consume. In charts and statistics a "drink" is normally defined as:
One 12 oz. beer
One shot of 80 Proof liquor or
One 4-5 oz glass of wine.
BEER - An "average" beer has about 5% alcohol content, but beers can vary in alcohol content too. An "ice" beer has a higher content, some as high as 7% by volume and some of the light beers are much lower alcohol content. Malt liquor is higher in alcohol content than the average beer Some draft beers are more than 12-oz. They can be 16, 18 or 22 oz - almost the equivalent of two "drinks" in one beer.
MIXED DRINKS - "averages" are based on typical drink recipes using 80 proof liquors. The amount of alcohol in actual mixed drinks may vary. For example a rum drink may have a range of proof in rums from 80 proof to "151" rum (named for it's proof). And that assumes that is it measured accurately when the drink is prepared.
A shot of apple Schnapps has less alcohol content than the same size shot of the average tequila.
WINES & WINE COOLER - vary in alcohol content also, but are normally a closer range so that one wine cooler or one 4-5 oz glass of wine will be the equivalent of one "drink."
BOTTOM LINE: Not all "drinks" are alike.
Be sure you know the alcohol content of the "drink" that you are having.

This is the worst question ever! It makes not one bit of logical sense. When will you drink? When is drinking okay? Say what you mean!!!
