Booze Mixed With Diet Sodas gets You 18% Drunker
Carbonation gets the alcohol into your system faster anyway so this just compounds matters. It happens because your body won't recognize say the rum & diet coke as food & it'll shoot it into the bloodstream faster. "After drinking, the participants’ BrAC was tested. Those who’d imbibed with regular soda had BrACs that peaked at an average of at .077 grams per 210 liters (BrAC measures the level of alcohol per liter of breath, rather than per a given volume of blood as blood alcohol content does; as represented here, the two measures can be compared more readily). Those who’d drank diet soda, on the other hand, peaked at .091—the difference, in many jurisdictions, between driving legally and a DUI charge."
"The research also prompts an entirely different question—why do diet mixers increase intoxication in the first place? The researchers believe it’s because the body recognizes regular sodas (which include sugar) as food, which slows down the rate of alcohol absorption into the blood. Diet sodas, on the other hand, only include aspartame, which the body doesn’t treat as food, so the alcohol mixed in gets absorbed much more quickly"

I usually mix Jack with diet coke or lately ginger ale, never noticed a difference getting drunk quicker on diet
If I could only find a good cider, I'll have to take a trip to England soon
