Drink blend strength Calculator
Calculate approximate mixed drink ABV and alcohol mass per serving. This free drink blend strength calculator shows the calculation and its assumptions so you can compare your own figures.
Your results
Calculate approximate mixed drink ABV and alcohol mass per serving.
Calculated outcomes
- Total ML
- 500 mL
- Ethanol ML
- 50 mL
- Alcohol GPer Serving
- 9.86 g/serving
Assumptions and estimates
- Method: Alcohol volume = sum(volume × ABV fraction). Blend ABV divides by total volume; ethanol density is approximately 0.789 g/ml.
- Assumes additive volumes at similar temperature; contraction and measurement variation are ignored. Alcohol mass is not an assessment of impairment or a safe intake recommendation.
Useful next steps
- Use Compare options to test an alternative side by side.

How the drink blend strength calculation works
Alcohol volume = sum(volume × ABV fraction). Blend ABV divides by total volume; ethanol density is approximately 0.789 g/ml.
Assumes additive volumes at similar temperature; contraction and measurement variation are ignored. Alcohol mass is not an assessment of impairment or a safe intake recommendation.
Using this calculator
