If we decide to drink, let's be mindful of the amount

In Mexico, our industry strictly adheres to national and international regulations, promoting an environment of responsible consumption. 

 

Our commitment is to promote awareness and moderation

✦ What is a standard drink?

We join the efforts of the Social Research Foundation, A.C. (FISAC) to promote awareness of the ‘standard drink’ and to fight harmful and illegal consumption practices, without differentiating by type of alcoholic beverage, because #AlcoholIsAlcohol.

DRINK OF SPIRITS

In its communications on the standard drink in Mexico, FISAC explains that 1 standard drink is equivalent to a glass of wine (120 ml), a can of beer (355 ml), or a glass of a distilled spirit (45 ml), as each properly served drink contains the same amount of alcohol.

This approach provides clear and accessible references for adults who enjoy alcoholic beverages.

✦ How to measure your drink?
