Are there more calories in red wine than in Jack Daniels?

Answer 1

It depends on the proof of the vodka.

For a 1.5 ounce shot here are the calories:

70 proof: 85 calories

80 proof: 100 calories

90 proof: 115 calories

100 proof: 130 calories

80 proof vodka contains 40% alcohol

1 gram of alcohol has 7 calories (7 calories per gram)

1 shot is about 45 milliliters by volume

A shot of 80 proof vodka would consist of 18 milliliters of alcohol (40%) and 27 milliliters of water (60%)

1 ml of alcohol weighs .8 grams

1 shot would contain about 14.4 grams of alcohol (18 X 0.8) by weight

14.4 grams X 7 calories per gram =100.8 calories in one shot of 80 proof vodka

So lets just say 100 CALORIES per SHOT

Answer 2

Yes, about 6.8mg of fat more. Literally, it's the "Rocks" that make it fatter. But the Vodka/Wine it self about 50% of the total amount of fat.
