How likely is a strawberry daiquiri to get me drunk? I’ve only had alcohol once and that was one beer.
-
Strongly depends on the establishment serving the daiquiri. Some places load it up with booze, others only put in a half shot. There's no standard recipe. Be warned that sugar-heavy drinks like a daiquiri often cause hangovers more easily than non-sugary alcoholic drinks.
You're probably better off just ordering your favorite diet soda and a shot of vodka, whiskey, or rum on the side. Mix half of the shot with your drink and see how you feel, then go from there.

I don't like beer or most alcohol, so I have a drink maybe a few times per year.
One single alcohol is enough to get me tipsy, and we are similar in dimensions.
Have fun on your date!!

Golden advice my father gave me:
The second you start noticing any buzz it's time to ease down. There is still more alcohol in your stomach waiting to be absorbed so you'll continue getting more buzzed even if you do stop.
It's a great way to pace yourself.
-
? It doesn’t.
-
For someone who doesn't drink and with your weight, you'll probably feel one.
Also, mixed drinks are more variable on determining when you are drunk. The liquor used to make it may be stronger or weaker. The quantity of alcohol can also be adjusted by the bartender.
-
Just have one and see if you like it. If you're 23 then you are old enough to figure out for yourself if you like it or not.
If you do like it it's fine, if you don't it's also fine. No pressure no worries
And you'll likely just feel a small buzz of the drink -
Akso, drink as much water as you do alcohol.
-
Homework water!

I made stupid mistakes in my youth and ended up in classes. This was repeated ad nauseum. As is the hour to process a single serving of alcohol is the same for everyone.
-
I reckon that that buzz will last half an hour…OP could drink slowly to stop the buzz going too high.

I weigh a little more but am a lightweight female drinker, and two standard drinks is my limit for a buzz that doesn't suck. So one double (that is what my homemade drinks usually measure) or two if we are out. Always bracketed by at least a pint of water before and after.
Though if I am hungry, less than one. So as long as you are eating you should be fine.
Strawberry Daiquiri usually is a pretty awful drink at restaurants though, not involving any actual strawberries.
