Calculate Alcohol Calories ↓Add multiple drinks to calculate your total calorie intake for the evening.
Alcohol contains 7 calories per gram — more than protein and carbs (4 kcal/g each), but less than fat (9 kcal/g).
Alcohol provides 7 calories per gram of pure ethanol — a fixed physical property, not an estimate. The calorie values in this calculator combine that fixed alcohol calorie count with the calories from any sugars, mixers, or residual carbohydrates in each drink (which is why a sugary cocktail has far more calories than a spirit of the same alcohol content served with soda water). Standard serving sizes and ABV percentages are based on typical commercial servings and labelling in most countries.
Actual pour sizes vary significantly by venue and by how a drink is made — a home-poured glass of wine is often larger than the standard 150ml serving used here, and bartenders don't always measure spirits precisely. Cocktail recipes also vary between bars, so the values shown are reasonable averages, not exact figures for any specific drink you're served. If you want a precise number for a specific brand or recipe, check the product's own nutrition information where available.
