How many calories in a litre bottle of vodka?

Answer 1

2,187 calories.

According to the calorie counters available on the internet, a shot of vodka (aka: a jigger, 1.5 ounces) in the typical 80 proof (40% alcohol) concentration is 97 calories. There are 33.824 ounces in a liter bottle and 1.5 ounces in a shot. So the 22.55 shots in a bottle equal 2,187 calories. An increase in concentration to 90 proof (45% alcohol) = 110 calories per shot, or 2,480 calories per bottle.

1,650 calories for a typical 750 ml bottle, also sometimes referred to as a fifth, as in 1/5 of a gallon, even though a 1/5 holds almost a 1/4 ounce (7 ml) more fluid. Close enough considering that most persons will mix the vodka with something that will probably add even more calories to the drink.
