A pericardial effusion is the abnormal accumulation of fluid in the pleural space around the heart. It is commonly known as fluid around the heart. If there is an excessive collection of fluid, it may compress the heart and this is known as a cardiac tamponade. It is potentially life threatening in these cases.
A shot really refers to a portion of liquor being served in a shot glass, and the same is true for a jigger.. A pint is 16 fluid ounces and a fifth (as the name implies, 1/5 of a gallon) is 25.6 ounces. So for the three most commonly quoted sizes for a shot (1, 1.25, and 1.5 ounces), a pint is 16, 12.8, or 10.7 shots and a fifth is 25.6, 20.5, or 17 shots.

Best Answer: Drinking it every day with or without juice or soda is not good. A 1/2 pint of whiskey is equal to 4 shots of whiskey. One serving is equivalent to 1 oz. So you're talking about drinking 4 drinks every day. This could lead to various liver and kidney infections or diseases if this amount of drinking daily continues for long periods of time.
