How many calories are in tequila?

The amount of calories in tequila can vary depending on factors such as the type of tequila, the brand, and the alcohol content. Here are some general guidelines:

- 1 ounce (30 ml) of 80-proof (40% ABV) tequila: Approximately 69 calories

- 1 ounce (30 ml) of 100-proof (50% ABV) tequila: Approximately 97 calories

These numbers are for pure tequila without any added ingredients. If you are drinking a tequila cocktail, the calorie content may be significantly higher depending on the ingredients used. For example, a margarita with added sweetener and fruit juice can contain several hundred calories.
