This is a variable thing. The more alcohol that is consumed, the longer it takes for it to be eliminated from the body. To be on the safe side, 24 hours should elapse (even though several hours is long enough in most instance of light drinking, where one or two drinks are consumed.). It takes longer for women to eliminate alcohol, in general (than men), and 50% of the Asian population (in the world) have very little to no alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme, with which to eliminate alcohol - so this is yet another variable.
