Bailey's Irish Cream Liqueur is 17% alcohol by volume. "Shot" isn't well defined. (Utah defines it legally as 1.5 ounces, but elsewhere in the US it can be anywhere from 1 to 1.5 ounces, weighted somewhat towards the upper end).
So figure out what size your "shot" is, then multiply by 0.17 to find the alcohol content.
30% of however much you drank... e.g. You drank a 50ml shot of 60 proof = 15ml of 'pure' alcohol
Well im guessing it makes your blood-alcohol content rise, but that's just a shot in the dark.

One standard drink typically equals a 12-ounce beer with 5% alcohol content, a 5-ounce glass of wine with 12% alcohol content, or a 1.5-ounce shot of distilled spirits with 40% alcohol content.
The alcohol content in one shot of tequila (about 1.5 ounces) is roughly equivalent to that in a 12-ounce beer with around 5% alcohol by volume (ABV). Generally, it takes about 1.5 to 2 beers to match the alcohol content of one shot of tequila, depending on the specific ABV of the beer. However, individual tolerance and the rate of consumption can also affect how these drinks impact a person.
If you take an imperial pint as being just over 568ml with around 5% abv and a shot of 25ml with around 35%abv then a pint has approximately 28ml of alcohol in it whereas a shot has approximately 8ml of alcohol in it. A shot of stronger whiskey (40% abv), (or vodka or any other spirit) will have approximately 10ml of alcohol in it So yes, a pint has more alcohol in it than a standard shot of whiskey. Shots get absorbed quicker as they contain less liquid and are drunk faster so you will get drunk quicker from shots
To compare the alcohol content of a drink, you must know two things: 1. The alcohol content of the drink (beer and whiskeys vary!) 2. The liquid volume of each drink. That's logical, right? The more you drink, the stronger the effect...and the stronger the alcohol content Once you know these things, you multiply the alcohol content by the volume (ounces), to get a final product alcohol amount. Example: 12 oz. of 6% alcohol beer 1.25 oz. (a normal shot) of 40% (80 proof) whiskey 12 x 6% = .72 1.25 x 40% = .5 So in THIS scenario, the 12 oz. beer puts more alcohol in your blood than the single shot. However, some beers go as low as 3.5% or up to 8%, and whiskeys can typically go from 35% up to 75% (yikes!). And shot sizes will vary too (depends on the bartender)! So you have to accurately know the alcohol content percentage and the ounces accurately to make an accurate comparison.
The comparison between beers and shots of whiskey like Jim Beam depends on various factors, including the alcohol content of the beer and the size of the shot. Typically, a standard shot of Jim Beam is around 1.5 ounces, and its alcohol by volume (ABV) is about 40%. Assuming a regular beer has an ABV of around 5%, you can estimate the equivalence by comparing the alcohol content. Here's a simplified calculation: Calculate the alcohol content in the shot of Jim Beam: Jim Beam (1.5 oz) at 40% ABV contains 0.6 ounces of pure alcohol. Determine how many beers would contain a similar amount of alcohol: Divide the amount of pure alcohol in the Jim Beam shot (0.6 ) by the alcohol content in the beer (5%). 0.6 0.05 = 12 beers 0.05 0.6oz =12beers Therefore, roughly speaking, a half point of Jim Beam (0.5 ) might be equivalent to the alcohol content in approximately 10 beers with 5% ABV. It's important to note that this is a rough estimate, and individual tolerance levels can vary. Additionally, different beer styles and brands may have varying alcohol content. Always drink responsibly and be aware of your own limits.
A shot of alcohol is one ounce. The size of the shot class varies.
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 content of absolute or pure alcohol is the same. This fact is called alcohol equivalence.
The total volume of a shot is 1.5 oz. Jack Daniels is 40% alcohol. 1.5 oz. X .4 = .6 oz.
