First we need to define "drink."

A standard drink is any drink that contains about 14 grams of pure alcohol (about 0.6 fluid ounces or 1.2 tablespoons), roughly one shot of 80-proof, 5 ounces of wine, or one 12-oz. American beer. It is based on the amount of alcohol that a healthy liver can metabolize in one hour. Therefore, 1 drink = 1 hour to clear from the body.

The problem is that "heavy drinkers" rarely drink standard drinks if they can help it. They order doubles, cocktails with more than one shot of booze, boilermakers and so forth. Therefore the term "drink" is pretty vague, and there is no way we can give a precise answer to your question.
