How Many Calories Are in 2 Ounces of Bourbon?

3 min read
A 1.5-ounce shot of 80-proof bourbon contains approximately 97 calories, according to the USDA. Extrapolating from that figure, a 2-ounce pour of bourbon can contain between 130 and 167 calories, but the exact number depends on the bourbon's proof. A higher proof means a higher alcohol content and therefore more calories.
