How many units of alcohol are in a jack daniels and coke?

How many units of alcohol are present in a Jack Daniel's and Coke? Additionally, could you provide details on how the alcohol content might vary depending on the proportions used in the drink?

Using the formula, I come up with 1.76 units for a one-shot jack and coke.

Given that:

1.5 oz shot of jack = 44 mL

jack ABV = 40%

44×40/1000=1.76

The coke doesn’t matter.

Do you mean percent of alcohol (which is twice the unit named “proof”)?

If you do, you take a jigger of 80 proof Jack Daniels which is 40% alcohol in a 1 1/2 ounce glass. That gives you 1.5x.40 = .6 ounces of pure alcohol. Now add in 10 ounces of coke which is zero alcohol. So that gives you .6/(10+.15) or .6/11.5 when you add up all the liquids. When you do that math it gives you .05 which is 5% alcohol in that drink.

In summary it is like drinking a full glass of straight liquor which is 10 proof. If you want to increase that proof/ percentage add less coke or another Jack jigger.

Traditionally, there is 1 shot in that drink, which is 1.25 oz. But it depends on who the bartender is and how they pour. Obviously if you ask for a double that will increase the amount to two shots.

It all depends on who is behind the bottle, and how big the glass. I make mine in a pint glass about a quarter full of Crown and top it up with cola and add a splash on top, but whiskey is whiskey.
