As someone who’s never drunk a full thing of it besides a beer once at around 18(?), I can say I have never gotten drunk before. I’ve also had some sips but definitely not drunk.

I want to try actually having some alcohol besides that beer since I’m drinking age in the United States (I’m 23). I decided I would order a daiquiri for dinner with my girlfriend.

(If this helps, I’m 135 pounds, 5’6, and female.)

    Size and weight have virtually zero to do with alcohol tolerance. Everyone is different. I have seen 100lb people throw back a fifth of vodka without blinking, while my inlaws can have half a wine cooler and be gone. With that said, one standard 12oz daiquiri won’t make most people drunk.

    Just start slow, and since you’re pretty new to its effects, don’t mix beer liquor and wine. Once you get used to your tolerance, you can mix it up a bit.

        I made stupid mistakes in my youth and ended up in classes. This was repeated ad nauseum. As is the hour to process a single serving of alcohol is the same for everyone.

        Also I could drink people twice my size under the table. I was 120lbs soaking wet.
