A city table reference

A city table reference is presented here as a social and clear drink with a route and choice direction. The card describes a declared formula, not a universal pour or personal limit.

Strength estimate

With the declared alcoholic ingredients, the recipe contains an estimated 0 U.S. standard drinks because no alcoholic ingredients are specified. The calculation uses 0.6 fluid ounces of pure alcohol for one U.S. standard drink, the definition used by NIAAA.

Band: reference. An estimate does not measure impairment, tolerance, or fitness to drive.

Calculation boundary. Ingredient strength and volume can vary. The estimate names its assumptions and does not turn a recipe into health or driving advice. Read how the estimate works.

How to use the card

Use the family and service shape to make a concise ordering decision. If you want the same long, bright format with no alcohol, the zero-proof ordering guide suggests language that is more helpful than simply asking for something sweet. If a lower-strength route fits better, compare the lower-alcohol formats rather than relying on a name alone.
