There is no standard unit of volume.

In the US, a shot is 1.5 ounces and a small shot is 1 ounce of liquor for an alcoholic beverage such as whiskey. However, this varies internationally and there is no absolutely defined unit, and various sizes of glasses are used.

A 'single shot' can be as little as 20 ml in Denmark (0.68 oz), or as much as 60 ml in South Korea (2 oz)

The standard size shot glass is 1.5 ounces. Other shot glass sizes are called "short shot" glasses or "pony shots" both of which are 1 ounce.

Alcoholism experts define a "standard drink" as 12 ounces of beer, 1.5 ounces of 72-proof distilled spirits, or 5 ounces of wine, all of which contain approximately .54 ounces of alcohol.

Proof means the alcohol content of distilled liquors. It is the percentage of alcohol multiplied by two. For example:

* 50% alcohol = 100-proof

* 100% alcohol = 200-proof

Since one drink is defined as containing one-half of an ounce of pure ethyl alcohol, each of the following is considered to be one drink:

*

10 ounces to 12 ounces of beer at 4% to 5% alcohol content

*

8 ounces to 12 ounces of wine cooler at 4% to 5% alcohol content

*

4 ounces to 5 ounces of table wine at 9% to 12% alcohol content

*

2.5 ounces of fortified wine at 20% alcohol content

*

1.25 ounces of 80 proof distilled spirits at 40% alcohol content

*

1 ounce of 100 proof distilled spirits at 50% alcohol content

One ounce = one shot.

If drinks are mixed 3 to 1, that would mean 3 parts other liquid to 1 part alcoholic beverage

Five ounces of wine contains the same amount of absolute alcohol (0.6 oz) as does a shot of distilled spirits (whiskey, gin, vodka, tequila, rum, etc),
