Alcohol content

Alcohol content refers to the measure of how much alcohol is present in a beverage, typically expressed as a percentage. This percentage indicates the amount of ethanol, the type of alcohol found in drinks like beer, wine, and spirits, relative to the total volume. For example, a beverage with 5% alcohol content means that 5% of the liquid is pure alcohol. Higher percentages generally indicate stronger drinks. Understanding alcohol content is important for responsible consumption and helps individuals gauge their alcohol intake for health and safety purposes.
