Average is anywhere from 30 minutes for an empty stomach to 90 minutes with food in the stomach. Some studies have suggested it can take up to 6 hours for alcohol to absorb after eating certain foods. Others say that everyone should be fully absorbed within 30 minutes. I have seen no studies that suggest alcohol can be absorbed in less than 20 minutes.
