Alcopops are usually sweeter drinks like Smirnoff Ice, Mike's, and wine coolers. These drinks may not even taste like alcohol, making them easy to drink. This is one of the reasons they are generally marketed towards a younger population of drinkers.

Some drinks might appear to be "one drink" but actually have a higher alcohol content. Drinks you should be aware of are:

• Microbrews
  • These are beers brewed at smaller breweries, and sometimes in restaurants.
• Malt Liquor
  • These beers will be labeled as a "malt liquor."
• Mixed drinks
  • Drinks that contain multiple types of liquor or are non alcoholic drinks mixed with liquor, like Long Island Iced Tea's are actually equal to several standard drinks.
