Obviously it would depend on how much you drink. Depending on your age, weight, and tolerance. For the average person it takes about three or four shots of whiskey to get somewhat drunk. This would kick in about 15 to 25 minutes after you drink it. This is because of the ethanol alcohol in the drink. Your liver has to detoxify your blood and if you drink more than your liver can handle it doesn't purify enough of your blood.
