Cocktail ABV & Calorie Calculator

Add your ingredients to see how strong a cocktail really is once it has been shaken or stirred with ice, how many standard drinks it holds and roughly how many calories it carries.

Below the calculator, the chart lists the ABV and calories of all 717 cocktails in the Pocket Bartender library, so you can find the strongest drinks, the lightest ones and the lowest-calorie options.

How cocktail ABV is calculated

Start with the pure alcohol in each ingredient: volume multiplied by its ABV. A 60 ml pour of 40% tequila holds 24 ml of alcohol. Add up every ingredient's alcohol and divide by the total volume to get the ABV before ice.

Ice then adds water. Shaking melts more ice than stirring, and stronger mixes melt more ice than weak ones. A Margarita goes into the shaker at around 30% ABV and comes out near 19%, about 55% more liquid than went in. The calculator uses Dave Arnold's measured dilution curves for shaken and stirred drinks.

Built drinks (a highball poured over ice) dilute slowly while you drink them, so the calculator counts no melt water for them. Calories come from the alcohol (7 kcal per gram) plus the sugar in liqueurs, syrups, juices and sodas.

Frequently asked questions

What is the strongest cocktail?

Of the 717 cocktails in our library, the strongest as served is the Karsk at about 60% ABV, followed by the Kentucky B And B (38%) and the Pink Gin (38%). Spirit-forward stirred drinks with no juice or soda come out strongest.

How strong are popular cocktails?

Typical ABV as served, after dilution: Margarita (24%), Mojito (12%), Pina Colada (12%), Cosmopolitan (17%), Long Island Iced Tea (16%), Gin And Tonic (10.5%). Most shaken sours land between 15% and 20%, while highballs topped with soda sit around 10%.

How many calories are in popular cocktails?

Calories per serving: Margarita (250 kcal), Mojito (205 kcal), Pina Colada (174 kcal), Cosmopolitan (151 kcal), Long Island Iced Tea (260 kcal), Gin And Tonic (190 kcal). Sugar from liqueurs, syrups and juice usually adds more calories than the spirit itself.

Which cocktails have the fewest calories?

The lowest-calorie alcoholic drinks in our library are Iced Coffee Fillip (60 kcal), Danbooka (70 kcal), Zombie Brains Shot (85 kcal), Zenmeister (90 kcal). Spirit with soda water, fresh citrus and no syrup keeps a drink under about 120 kcal.

How much does ice dilute a cocktail?

A shaken drink typically gains 45 to 60% of its starting volume in melt water and a stirred drink 35 to 45%, depending on how strong the mix is. That is why a Daiquiri made from 40% rum ends up around 20% ABV in the glass.

What counts as a standard drink?

In the US a standard drink is 14 grams of pure alcohol, about 1.5 oz of 40% spirit. In the UK one unit is 8 grams (10 ml) of pure alcohol. Many cocktails hold more than one standard drink: a Long Island Iced Tea holds close to two.

Is ABV the same as proof?

No. In the US, proof is twice the ABV, so a 40% ABV vodka is 80 proof. The UK proof system is different and rarely used today.
