Q: Does the type of alcohol I drink
affect my BAC?
A: No. A drink is a drink, is a drink.
A typical drink equals about half
an ounce of alcohol (.54 ounces, to be exact). This is the approximate amount of
alcohol found in:
-
one shot of distilled spirits, or
-
one 5-ounce glass of wine, or
-
one 12-ounce beer.
