Responsible Drinking
At Broke & Buzzed, we promote responsible consumption and legal drinking practices.
Our Commitment to Responsible Drinking
Broke & Buzzed is committed to promoting responsible consumption of alcoholic beverages. While our platform helps you find better prices on your favorite drinks, we encourage all users to consume alcohol responsibly and in moderation.
Age Verification
All users of Broke & Buzzed must be 21 years of age or older. Our partner stores will always verify your ID at checkout, as required by law. We do not facilitate or encourage underage drinking in any form.
Consumption Guidelines
According to the Dietary Guidelines for Americans, moderate alcohol consumption is defined as up to 1 drink per day for women and up to 2 drinks per day for men. A "standard" drink typically contains about 14 grams (0.6 ounces) of pure alcohol, which is found in:
- 12 ounces of regular beer (about 5% alcohol)
- 5 ounces of wine (about 12% alcohol)
- 1.5 ounces of distilled spirits (about 40% alcohol)
Know Your Limits
Everyone's body processes alcohol differently. Factors such as weight, food consumption, medications, and overall health can affect how alcohol impacts you. Always be aware of your personal limits and never drive after consuming alcohol.

Tips for Responsible Drinking
- Eat before and while drinking to slow alcohol absorption.
- Alternate alcoholic drinks with water to stay hydrated and consume less alcohol overall.
- Know what constitutes a standard drink so you can accurately track your consumption.
- Plan safe transportation before you start drinking. Use designated drivers, taxis, or rideshare services.
- Respect non-drinkers and never pressure others to drink.
- Be aware of how medications interact with alcohol and consult healthcare providers if you're unsure.
