Drinking black coffee can sober you up
Mixing drinks will make you drunker
Drink milk before drinking to coat the stomach and you won’t get as drunk
Taking a cold shower can sober you up

Class notes: What’s in a drink?
One drink = 12 oz glass of beer (beer is 4-6% alcohol)
4-6 oz glass of wine/champagne (12-16% alcohol)
2 oz shot of liquor (40-95% alcohol)
Drinks that are 100% alcohol are ILLEGAL in the US because pure alcohol could slow down the systems of the body so much that they would stop functioning (death)
BAC- Blood alcohol concentration- refers to the amount of alcohol in the blood stream
Proof- Equals twice the percentage of alcohol (something 100 proof is 50% alcohol)
DWI- driving while intoxicated- in NYS DWI = a BAC of .08%
