Don't Stop Drinking

We've got ways for you to keep up your social drinking life
while staying legal!

Drinking should not be the primary focus of any activity.

Recognize another's right to drink or not to drink.

Set a limit on how many drinks you are going to have when you drink, and stick to it.

Drink slowly - if you sip a drink and do not have more than one drink per hour, the alcohol will not

have a chance to build up in your bloodstream. This is due to the natural metabolic functioning of the liver.

Eat before you drink. Eating high-protein foods like cheeses and meats, will slow down the absorption rate so that the alcohol will not hit your system all at once.

Drinking carbonated beverages with alcohol or carbonated alcohol preparations increases the absorption of alcohol into the bloodstream, while diluting alcohol with water slows absorption.

When you go with friends to a party, you might want to have a designated driver - someone who will stay sober and drive the rest home. You can take turns for other parties.

Remember!

Typically, one shot (1.5oz) liquor = one glass (5oz)
of wine = one (12oz) beer.

Count your straws or bottle caps to help keep track of how many drinks you've had. Know your limit and stay within them!
