ABV, Dilution & Standard Drinks Calculator for Cocktails

Stop guessing cocktail strength. This file calculates ABV before and after dilution, final volume, and standard drinks per serve, so you can publish accurate specs and control responsible service.

Packages and turnaround

Starter (1 day): You receive the ABV Calculator file. You input ingredients and pours for 1 cocktail, select unit system (ml or oz), method and ice. The file calculates ABV pre and post dilution, ethanol grams, standard drinks, strength band, plus QC warnings. Includes a print ready Spec Sheet and an optional Menu Log.

Standard (2 days): I configure the file for your venue and validate your inputs. I set your preferred standard drink system (US, AU, UK, or custom grams), unit system, strength bands, and I review your dilution assumptions (method and ice). I also clean and align your Ingredient Library ABV values so results are consistent.

Advanced (4 days): Full done for you service. You send up to 10 cocktail or mocktail recipes with pour amounts, method, and ice. I run the calculations, deliver a separate filled file per drink, a consolidated Menu Log summary, and print ready Spec Sheets you can export to PDF.

Advanced requires: ingredient list and recipes with pour amounts, plus method and ice per drink.
