Thank you for digging into the details and displaying their clear ridiculousness. As someone who finished a 750ml bottle (17 drinks) over 4 days this week, the headline had me freaking out. Whew.

Wait. A bottle of wine is 17 drinks?!

Or did you finish a bottle of hard liquor in four days?

It would have to be hard liquor. A shot is 1.5 oz / 44 ml =1 drink. 750/17=44.118
