It’s easy to tell how strong a drink is because you simply have to read the label on the bottle and look at the alcohol by volume (ABV). This tells you whether the whiskey or vodka you’re pouring is the standard 80 proof or slightly higher or lower. But have you ever wondered what the alcohol percentage of your cocktail is?
Things can get complicated when you start mixing different liquors with non-alcoholic mixers shaking it with ice and adding water and all the other things that go into making great drinks. Unless you’re willing to lug a testing kit full of scientific gadgets to the bar there’s no one answer to how strong your drink actually is.
