Popular among young Americans is mixing energy drinks with alcohol. Many want to be "awake" while drinking. Research done at the University of Florida surveyed more than 800 college age patrons that were leaving bars between 10pm and 3am. They had their breath-alcohol level measured. 6.5% who had mixed alcohol with energy drinks were three times more likely to be drunk than those who consumed only alcohol. There is really no way to know the levels on caffeine are safe or unsafe when mixed with alcohol and what regulation or policies should be implemented to protect patrons .
