Cocktail ABV with Dilution
Final ABV and standard-drink count of a mixed drink after ice-melt dilution (shaken ~28%, stirred ~23%, rocks ~15%, neat 0%). A strength figure that ignores the melt overstates the pour; final_abv = pure_alcohol / (volume + melt).
Formula and source
pure_alcohol = total_volume x weighted_abv / 100; dilution_water = total_volume x method_pct / 100; final_abv = pure_alcohol / (total_volume + dilution_water) x 100; standard_drinks = pure_alcohol / 0.6.
Cocktail dilution model (Dave Arnold, Liquid Intelligence), by name.
