A standard drink is a measurement of alcohol consumption which represents a hypothetical beverage. A standard drink contains a fixed amount of pure alcohol and it varies in volume depending on the alcohol concentration of the beverage.

For example a standard drink for beer and vodka such as 12 ounce can of beer and 1.5 ounce shot of vodka, both are considered as one standard drink because they contain the same amount of alcohol. Another example is a coctail with 1-1/2 of liquor contains the same amount of alcohol as a 12 oz. beer or a 6 oz. glass of wine.

The standard drink is used to the study about alcohol consumption and its risks to health.

The standard drink is created to help to visualize and estimate the absolute alcohol content of various drink concentrations and serving sizes.
