5 Countries That Consume The Most Alcohol

2. Uganda

Liters of Pure Alcohol Per Person: 15.09 L

Uganda is known for its lush green landscapes, its friendly people, and its diverse wildlife. Though the legal drunk driving limit in Uganda is higher than it is in Europe, at 0.08% BAC, the country has reported fewer road fatalities linked to driving under influence as compared to European countries. In 2017, Uganda’s share of road deaths linked with drunk driving sat at 0.8%. However, due to poor healthcare infrastructure, the rate of premature deaths in Uganda due to alcohol consumption still sits at an alarmingly high level of 95.63 per 100,000 people as of 2019, but lower than 123.24 per 100,000 people in 1990. Uganda has an alcohol consumption of 15.09 liters of pure alcohol per person and is ranked among the countries that consume the most alcohol.
