DUI Professional Drink Profile

Tia Maria

A public drink database profile for BAC simulation, drinking-pattern analysis, and litigation-support workflow review.

Liqueur Coffee 26.50% ABV

Updated May 27, 2026

Alcohol concentration 26.50% percent alcohol by volume

Reference volume 1.50 oz fluid ounces per full profile serving

Ethanol volume 0.40 oz volume x ABV before density conversion

US standard drinks 0.66 using 0.6 fl oz ethanol per standard drink

Profile Reference

Drink type: Liqueur
Subtype: Coffee
Database profile ID: 110
Status: Public active profile

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 26.50% equals about 0.66 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 Maria Background

Tia Maria is a branded coffee liqueur associated with Illva Saronno and the Disaronno Group spirits portfolio. Current U.S. public product records list Tia Maria Cold Brew at 26.5% ABV / 53 proof, so DUI Professional records this public profile as a 1.5 fl oz serving at 26.5% ABV for BAC simulation, timeline review, and report documentation. At 1.50 fl oz and 26.50% ABV, the stored profile equals about 0.66 U.S. standard drinks on the 0.6 fl oz ethanol basis; DUI Professional uses that dose with timing, absorbed fraction, elimination, and body variables in BAC simulation.

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 26.50% ABV contains 0.40 oz ethanol, equal to 0.66 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.
