My Biology professor tells me that it takes 1 hour for the bloodstream to get rid of 0.015 % BAC (aka blood alcohol content). So I researched this according to the police requirement of 0.05% BAC and wondered, "how many drinks is this?" The standard for 1 drink is 100% alcohol (aka 200 proof, aka ethanol) x .5 ounce. If I multiply the %alcohol of my drink (say pear cider= 7%) by the unknown X I can establish an algebraic equation: .5 ounce x 100% = Xounce x 7%. The number of ounces to equal one drink then is X = 50 / 7 = 5.7 ounce.
Another biological fact is that alcohol is processed in the body differently at various body weights as well as gender. I found a great chart on a website which correlates the BAC for 1 drink as defined above for each of male and female as well as different body weights.
