DUI Professional Drink Profile
Tia Lusso (with cream)

BAC Simulation Context
DUI Professional uses drink profiles as structured inputs for alcohol dose, absorption timing, and elimination modeling. This profile describes the concentration and reference serving volume used when a full drink is added to a simulation.
1.50 oz at 17% equals about 0.43 U.S. standard drinks because one U.S. standard drink contains 0.6 fl oz ethanol. Review how these values are used in BAC simulation software or compare it against the full drink database.
Tia Lusso (with cream) Background
Tia Lusso (with cream) is a cream liqueur associated with the Tia Maria brand lineage. Beverage industry reporting on the Allied Domecq Tia Lusso cream-liqueur product identified it at 17% ABV, matching the common strength for this style and correcting the prior 27% value. DUI Professional keeps the stored 1.5 fl oz serving and 17% ABV as the controlling BAC simulation inputs.
Professional Use
- Compare drink assumptions during DUI and criminal-defense case review.
- Document beverage concentration and volume used in BAC simulation reports.
- Review drinking-pattern inputs with forensic toxicology and expert-witness workflows.
- Support training examples for alcohol absorption, elimination, and retrograde extrapolation.
Standard Drink Math
A U.S. standard drink uses 0.6 fl oz of pure ethanol. This profile's 1.50 oz reference serving at 17% ABV contains 0.26 oz ethanol, equal to 0.43 standard drinks.
That ethanol dose is the starting point for BAC simulation software; consumed fraction, timing, absorption, elimination, and body-composition assumptions are modeled separately. Compare other entries in the drink database or use the related profiles below.
