Yes and it's simple science expressed by the formula
C1V1 = C2V2

C= Concentration
V=Volume

So if you add a non-alcoholic drink to an Alcoholic drink there will be an increased new Volume (V2) while the new Concentration(C2) will decrease.

Proudly a science student cheesy

That's if the volume to consume is constant. But if the volume varies then the concentration is same

Doesn't change shit. Once drank a full glass of brandy diluted with Coca cola, that day I saw a plane in the sky and ran for cover because the plane looked so close. A small puddle looked like a lake and when I lay on my bed, it felt like I was on a flying saucer. Mehnnn.. I saw hell that day.

slows down the effect, by diluting alcohol you would take less alcohol overall before you get filled up compared to taking just alcohol

This is why Cognacs like Henessy with little or no water has alcoholic content of 45% while Beer has 5% with plenty of water in it, same as red wine with 12% alc ..

so 3 shorts of spirit or a tumbler is the same thing as drinking like two bottles of beer or a glass of red wine

P.S: if you must mix your Alcohol use water or fruit juice(never use Diet coke or coke), because alcohol dehydrates you by making you sweat and pee so you need water and vitamins from the juice, mixing soft drink and alcohol is like mixing diabetis with liver problem

it makes it easier to drink with an increasing effect. I can prove mathematically if anybody is interested.

So I was chilling in one beer parlour today when two guys came in for drinks, one of them ordered for a bottle of Goldberg while the other ordered for a bottle of Stout. While the girl was about going to bring the drinks, the stout guy asked "Do you have nutri milk?", she replied with a yes and he asked her to bring it, explaining to his friend that it reduce the effect of the alcohol in the stout and the guy just nodded, but I was thinking of how that would be possible when the full bottle of stout will get into your body system with extra sugar from the nutri milk, and I felt it should be more damaging but I decided to mind my business and bring it here. Doctors in the house, is the guy correct with his ideology?.

u really mind ur business to bring here because u think we don't mind our business here.

Good analogy. In essence, reduced concentration = reduced effect. However if the drinker still went ahead to finish all the content, does it not amount to the same concentration?

Illustration, if Atiku consumes a bottle of red wine of 25% volume and Buhari consume 5 bottles of beer of 5% volume (which can also mean same as 1 watered-down red wine into 5 bottles).

In final analysis, have they not both consumed same level of alcohol?

I'm no science student but I'm thinking maybe some chemical in the coke shouldn't be mixing with another chemical in the brandy hence the result grin

Any in-house chemistry student?
Dilution will answer the question.
Once you understand the meaning of % by volume relative to volume of solute and volume of solution, the answer will be vivid.

Re: Does Mixing Alcoholic Drinks With Non-Alcoholic Drinks Reduce Effect? by Nobody: 8:53pm On Dec 08, 2019
Yes it does. You are diluting the drink by mixing with a nonalcoholic

You're correct. If you consume V2 which is the new volume after dilution then you've still consumed C1 which is your initial percentage alcohol cheesy

Nope. if you mix 30% alcoholic drink in a full pepsi bottle. It only changes the taste, but the Alcohol level still remains 30%.

So let us not deceive ourselves and face reality jehjeh.

It can only softens the taste of the alcohol and not the effect.
It softens the taste and fills the belly more since the person is consuming two products compared to one. Truth might exist in his saying because the fuller he gets the less he’ll consume of both drinks. The less he consumes of the alcoholic beverage the less the effect it has on him. So, yes, he’s not fully correct but there’s truth in the sentence.

The alcoholic % is a volumetric one. Meaning, 10% alcoholic content means that 1 part out of 10 parts by volume is pure alcohol. So by adding the nutrimilk, the volume has increased without additional increases in alcohol so there is dilution. Secondly, because the consumer is not taking it instantaneously, it will take him more time to consume the alchohol in the beer giving the body more time to neutralize the effect. Also the quantity of alcohol he will consume overall will reduce because he has a limit interms of volume he can drink which is already diluted.
For example, if you put 1kg of powdered detergent in small water, it will be effective, but if you add more water, even though the detergent remains thesame, the detergent will be diluted and unable to wash the cloth.

For better explanation.
Concentration = No of moles / Volume
That is to say that increase in volume results to a corresponding Decrease in concentration but the moles remain constant.

So if you need lesser effect of the alcohol do not consume the entire volume after diluting and if you do, you have consumed same alcohol content in alcohol to diluant ratio

Seems u crammed formulas... If u mix a bottle of star with a bottle of say fanta into a bigger bottle and drink the full new bottle which could be ur "V2" u've not reduced the concentration of the alcohol hence it will still have d same effect.

Great hypothetical situation but weak mathematics
Let's assume the drink was 100ml to begin with, 30% alcohol means you have 30ml alcohol in the drink. When you add a non alcoholic beverage say another 100ml, you have a 200ml drink with only 30ml alcohol. This reduces the alcoholic content to 30/200 now which is 15%.
So in way, it reduces the alcoholic percentage of the drink while the alcoholic volume remains constant.
