Does coffee reduce blood alcohol level?

Coffee does not reduce the level of alcohol in your bloodstream. It is a common misconception that drinking coffee can counteract the effects of alcohol, but there is no scientific evidence to support this. In fact, coffee can actually worsen the effects of alcohol by dehydrating the body, which can lead to an increase in blood alcohol concentration (BAC). The only way to lower your BAC is to wait for the alcohol to be metabolized by your liver, which can take several hours.
