This is variable. It depends on a number of factors which include: • How often you drink • If you have eaten • Your size • Your weight The list is endless; there is no specific time, sorry. Also there isn't really such thing as a standard drink; what's standard to you could be someone else's mouth-wash.
The alcohol in a standard drink is metabolized in about one hour.
A standard drink, legally, is a unit of measurement that contains 30mL of alcohol.
Standard drinks all contain the same amount of alcohol (.6 oz). A standard drink of beer is 12 oz, a standard drink of dinner wine is five oz, and a standard drink of liquor is 1 & 1/2 oz.
In the US, a "standard" drink is 0.6 ounces of pure alcohol, regardless of the beverage involved.
0.08 is the legal limit for blood-alcohol percentage.
.60 ounces of absolute alcohol is considered one standard drink. Assuming common values for alcohol by volume percentages, this gives: 12 oz. of beer. 5 oz. of wine. 1.5 oz. of hard liquor.
The amount of alcohol in a standard drink varies in different countries, from 6 grams in Austria to 19.75 grams in Japan. (Japan, as a country, is in serious denial about the extent of their drinking problems. Binge drinking is sort of a national sport.)In the United States, a standard drink (unit) of alcohol is any drink that contains about 14 grams of pure alcohol (about 0.6 fluid ounces or 1.2 tablespoons). In the US, a standard drink is calculated as roughly the amount of alcohol that can be metabolized by the human body in one hour. In other words, if you drank one unit per hour you could (at least in theory) continue to drink indefinitely without becoming intoxicated. In fact, metabolic rates vary among individuals and by gender, so this is not even an accurate approximation.
A standard serving of wine is five ounces.
Each standard drink of beer, wine or liquor contains .60 oz. of absolute or pure alcohol.
A stranded drink contains 14 gram or 1/2 ounce in 650ml of alcohol.
Standard alcoholic drinks in the U.S. contain .6 oz of absolute alcohol.
