January 22, 2016 – Diageo, which is the biggest alcohol beverage company in the world, has a web site that is really useful if you want to compare the alcohol levels in different drinks, say beer vs. spirits, nutritional content, the number of calories, and find out just how long it takes for the body to process alcohol.
The site is DRINKIQ https://www.drinkiq.com/en-us/. It is easy to use and some of it is actually fun like the Drink Calculator. We can all relate to watching “Titanic”, right? (Check it out!) It also busts a number of myths about drinking and staying sober at the same time. No, gulping coffee or eating greasy food won’t sober you up. Sorry.
This site is useful for all age groups but we especially recommend it to youthful drinkers or anyone inexperienced in drinking alcohol. It isn’t preachy, just offering fact based information in a user friendly way. It is mobile friendly and available in 12 languages.
