How many units does whiskey have in it?
It's impossible to say how many "units" are in whiskey without knowing:
* The size of the drink: Is it a shot, a single serving, or a full bottle?
* The strength of the whiskey: Whiskey comes in varying alcohol by volume (ABV) percentages, like 40% ABV, 50% ABV, etc.
* What constitutes a "unit": Units are a way to measure alcohol content, but the definition can vary depending on the country or region.
To figure out the units in a specific whiskey drink, you'll need to know:
1. The volume of the drink (in millilitres or fluid ounces).
2. The ABV of the whiskey (as a percentage).
3. The definition of a "unit" in your location.
Here's a general formula to get you started:
* Units = (Volume of drink in ml x ABV %) / 1000
Example:
* A 35 ml shot of whiskey at 40% ABV would contain approximately 1.4 units.
Important Note:
* Always drink responsibly and be aware of the risks associated with excessive alcohol consumption.
* If you're unsure about how much alcohol is in your drink, ask a bartender or check the label.
