When someone asks you how many drinks you've had, in what terms of alcohol do they mean? Do they mean, how many "shots" of alcohol?

The standard is one ounce of 80 proof liquor, one 8 ounce glass of wine or one 12 ounce beer.

For hard drinks, one shot of straight or a glass of a mixed drink (this gets confusing: it could be a zombie glass, an aperitif glass, a low-ball glass or a chanpagne glass).
For wine, a 6-oz glass.
beer can be as little as 7-oz and as large as 40-oz (but i feel that is akin to three beers)

i do no longer know what the scientific learn say, yet can wager greater suitable than one drink is in basic terms too a lot, exceptionally in case you smoke or get out interior the solar somewhat. Combining those 3 multiplies the end results of a single one. Alcohol itself is dehydrating that's undesirable for the floor.
