Consumption of alcoholic beverages in Brazil by gender 2023

In Brazil, respondents were asked whether they had consumed a certain amount of alcoholic beverages (an intake of four or more doses of alcoholic drinks for women, and five or more doses for men) on a single occasion during the last 30 days. The share of Brazilian men who claimed to have drunk such amount of alcoholic beverages on a single occasion in the previous month amounted to 27.3 percent in 2023. This figure was higher than the share of women who claimed to have consumed such amount of alcoholic beverages, which reached about 15.2 percent that same year.
