Which Country Drinks The Most?

I really don't drink alcohol that often. Maybe a beer during the summer while pitching horseshoes or a drink after mowing the lawn. I almost never drink during the winter. I was reading an interesting report of which countries drink the most alcohol in the world. The country that leads the way, might surprise you.It's South Korea!

According to analysis from Euromonitor International, South Koreans are the world's biggest consumer of hard liquor, and it's not even close!

The report, which included 53 nations, was based on how many standard U.S. 1.5 oz. shots of hard alcohol were consumed per week. Here's the top 10:

1. South Korea 11.2 shots/week
2. Russia 5.0 shots/week
3. Thailand 4.8 shots/week
4. Poland 4.0 shots/week
5. Japan 3.6 shots/week
6. Philippines 3.5 shots/week
7. Bulgaria 3.3 shots/week
8. Slovakia 3.0 shots/week
9. Ukraine 2.8 shots/week
10. France 2.7 shots/week

Americans came in at 2.5 shots/week, landing just outside the top ten.

Three countries, Egypt, Indonesia and Saudi Arabia, reported no liquor sales in 2013.
