Will I pass a EtG test on Monday evening around 5pm if I drank half a margarita at 9:30 pm on Friday night. I'm 140 lbs female.

It's easier to calculate a whole drink, 14 g of pure alcohol = one standard drink (US). The EtG created would be cleared in a range of 13-21 hours, average.

Please report your results when you get them.

So your basing this off one full drink? And your that one full drink will be out of my system in 13 to 21 hours. So on Monday my EtG should be okay right?

Yes. Even considering a greater amount than you actually consumed the resultant EtG would be eliminated within that time span. Small and moderate amounts of alcohol have been time/quantity tested and are reasonably reliable.

1 light beer (12 oz, 4.2% abv) is 8/10 of a standard drink (US). The above information is applicable.

I had one shot of Strega (80 proof liqueur) on Tuesday night at around 9 pm. I have to take an EtG test today (following friday) at 7pm. Do you think I will pass?
