Pint of liquor vs a measuring pint
A liquor “pint” is a nickname for a bottle size. It is not the same as a pint of beer or a measuring cup pint. We did not open an official page defining those, so we do not state their volume here.
How strong is it?
The 8.5 figure assumes 80-proof spirits (40% ABV). Check the label for your bottle. Our bottle guide covers other sizes.
