Question: What is the main purpose of a 'standard drink' measurement?
Answer options:
- To encourage customers to drink more.
- To standardize drink sizes for pricing menus. ✅ To provide a consistent measure of alcohol content for assessment.

Correct answer: To provide a consistent measure of alcohol content for assessment.
Explanation: A 'standard drink' is a consistent measure of approximately 0.6 ounces (or 17 ml) of pure alcohol, regardless of the type of beverage. This helps servers and individuals estimate alcohol intake and potential BAC levels, which is crucial for responsible service and intoxication assessment. It's not about pricing or promotion.
