Just curious as I can never understand my alcohol tolerance

I wouldn’t be at all.

MelisandeLongfield · 01/02/2025 12:36

Would depend on how quickly I drank them. Not at all if it was over the course of an evening.

How small is small 😬

Maybe in the space of two/two and half hours

Prosecco will make you drunk much faster thanks to the fizz than say wine.

Opink · 01/02/2025 12:37

Just a normal looking glass, just not one of those mammoths

Depends on the day for me. Sometimes it wouldn't touch the sides, other days I'd be sick. (Not that I drink prosecco but equivalent thereof).

lilybloom2 · 01/02/2025 12:38

Some evenings I would be hardly affected and others I'd be very drunk. I've found it all depends on my hormones, stress levels, eating habits that day and how fast I drink.

Ilovelowry · 01/02/2025 12:38

Well if it was Cremant instead, I can drink one glass and I will be flushed. Two and I'm drunk.

MagneticSquirrel · 01/02/2025 12:39

Not drunk at all assuming small = 125ml Prosecco. That would be 500ml or a 2/3 a bottle … especially not have 2.5 hours!

CherryMarigold · 01/02/2025 12:39

Likely very drunk, although I could drink the same amount of gin or rum and barely notice.
Ihad a single glass of Prosecco for a toast with brunch at a family event and was all giggly and daft!
Prosecco hits different and I try to avoid at all costs as the headache is not worth it.

RosesAndHellebores · 01/02/2025 12:40

Four flutes, not at all drunk but I'd not want any more.

Agree

Notgivenuphope · 01/02/2025 12:40

I am a massive lightweight marathon runner so would be drunk on one hahahaha

TheBoysAndTheBallet · 01/02/2025 12:41

Hardly at all, and I'm a lightweight!

Rogerisourlodger · 01/02/2025 12:41

I'm not keen on prosecco but if it was cava/cremant and the glasses were 125ml, I'd definitely be tipsy on that (2/3 of a bottle).

Dearg · 01/02/2025 12:41

If you are getting 6 glasses from a bottle, so 4 is more than half, I would not be drunk as such, but clearly would be a bit impaired, and obviously way over any drink drive limit.
Plus I would have a headache in the morning and/ or feel sick

JockTamsonsBairns · 01/02/2025 12:41

Not remotely drunk.

Sinkintotheswamp · 01/02/2025 12:41

Utterly wasted and quite poorly.

SleepingisanArt · 01/02/2025 12:42

A standard measure for prosecco is 125ml meaning there are 6 glasses to a bottle. The bubbles help the alcohol to get into your bloodstream faster - some people can tolerate that whilst others can't. It's very individual.

Prosecco will make you drunk much faster thanks to the fizz than say wine.

Except that the ABV of Prosecco is usually around 10-11% and wine is usually 14-15% so that's not necessarily true.

claudiawinklemansfringetrimmer · 01/02/2025 12:43

Fizzy stuff goes straight to my head so tbh I would be drunker on that than I would be on 4 gin and tonics or similar

MrsSkylerWhite · 01/02/2025 12:43

If I hadn’t eaten, probably a bit cheerier than usual. If I had eaten, not at all. Certainly not drunk.

usernotfound0000 · 01/02/2025 12:43

With food and over that time period, a bit merry. Without food I'd be tipsy verging on drunk. Drank in a shorter period of time I'd be wasted!

thehorsesareallidiots · 01/02/2025 12:44

I'd be notably tipsy, and have a crashing headache in the morning. Prosecco does not love me back.
