DUI Professional Drink Profile
Cutwater Tequila Margarita
A public drink database profile for BAC simulation, drinking-pattern analysis, and litigation-support workflow review.
Updated May 25, 2026
Alcohol concentration
12.50%
percent alcohol by volume
Reference volume
12.00 oz
fluid ounces per full profile serving
Ethanol volume
1.50 oz
volume x ABV before density conversion
US standard drinks
2.50
using 0.6 fl oz ethanol per standard drink
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.
12.00 oz at 12.50% equals about 2.50 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.

Cutwater Tequila Margarita Background
Cutwater Tequila Margarita maps to Cutwater's Lime Margarita canned cocktail. Official Cutwater product information lists the can at 12 fl oz and 12.5% ABV, made with Cutwater tequila, lime notes, and triple sec; Anheuser-Busch identifies Cutwater as its San Diego-based canned cocktail brand. DUI Professional classifies this under Mixes/Misc. because it is a packaged ready-to-drink cocktail, not a straight tequila entry.
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 12.00 oz reference serving at 12.50% ABV contains 1.50 oz ethanol, equal to 2.50 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.
