CORE ALCOHOL TOOL

Standard Drinks Calculator.
How much alcohol is in your drink?

Turn a serving size and ABV into standard drinks, alcohol units, pure alcohol grams, and calories.

Describe the drink

A standard drink is a public-health measure, not a recommendation to drink.

THE MATH

Volume × ABV × density.

We multiply volume by ABV and ethanol density (0.789 g/ml) to estimate pure alcohol. That total is divided by your country’s definition: 14 g in the U.S., 8 g in the UK, and 10 g in Australia, New Zealand, Ireland, and Singapore.
