¿Beber café o té reduce el nivel de alcohol en la sangre?

Drinking coffee or tea does not reduce the alcohol level. The only way to remove alcohol from the body is time, because the liver breaks it down at a set rate. The average rate is about 0.15 g/l per hour, depending on the person's weight, sex and metabolism. The myth that caffeine helps reduce drunkenness comes from its stimulating effect. Coffee can make a person feel more awake, but this does not mean they are sober and fit to drive. Alcohol still affects reflexes, attention and the ability to drive, even if the person feels more alert. So before driving, you must wait until the alcohol has been completely eliminated from the body, instead of relying on home remedies such as coffee or a cold shower.
