DUI Professional Drink Profile
Sazerac Rye

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 45% equals about 1.13 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.

Sazerac Rye Background
Sazerac Rye is the rye whiskey brand tied to New Orleans cocktail history in Sazerac Company official materials. The standard expression is treated as a 90 proof rye whiskey, so this row records 45% ABV for BAC simulation. DUI Professional classifies it under Spirits / Whisky, not Bourbon, because rye uses a different legal grain basis and flavor profile even though it belongs to the American whiskey family.
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 45% ABV contains 0.68 oz ethanol, equal to 1.13 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.
