food and drink non alcoholic beveragesHow much pure alcohol is there in a 5 oz glass of wine?
Also, how many ounces of alcohol are in a glass of wine?
In the United States, one "standard" drink (or onealcoholic drink equivalent) contains roughly 14 grams ofpure alcohol, which is found in: 12 ounces of regularbeer, which is usually about 5% alcohol. 5 ounces ofwine, which is typically about 12% alcohol. 1.5ounces of distilled spirits, which is about 40%alcohol.
Similarly one may ask, is 5 alcohol a lot?
The standard serving of wine is 5 oz., whichgenerally contains between 11 and 13 percent alcohol byvolume. No matter how spirits are consumed, a standard serving (1.5oz.) of 80 proof (40 percent alcohol by volume) of distilledspirits has the same amount of alcohol as standard servingsof beer and wine. So 1.5 oz.
A bottle of wine at 12.5% alcohol containsabout seven Standard Drinks. A Standard Drink is a drink thatcontains 10g of pure alcohol.
