Yes

Beats me. I usually just spin the top off and see how much I can get down before the ceiling fan starts to make me dizzy.

15 yrs of bartending has taught me this. Typically a shot is 11/4 oz. Often they can be 1 1/2 oz. When I was serving friends, family, or good tipper 2 1/2 oz to 3 oz.

yep

Actually, I think one serving of alcohol equals one 12 oz. beer, one 5 oz. glass of wine, or 1 1/2 oz. of hard liquor. So I think a "shot" is technically 1 1/2 oz.

that works

no. an actual shot of alcohol is 1 1/4 ounce, but nutrition labels are deceiving. A mfg can call a serving anything they want in order to give the nutrition details legally and say this bottle contains 1.xx amount of servings and make you assume the label refers to consuming the entire content. The absolute rule of a single "drink" of alcohol is 12 oz of beer, or 7 oz of wine, or 1.25 oz of 80 proof alcohol.

yo man and you are the drinker so make your own decision
