No. the alcohol won't lower the blood glucose after two drinks. It will lower it after several, been there and done that. You are most-likely correct in that it was the meal. Normally, if I have a big dinner meal that is difficult to calculate I do a blood test before going to bed and bolus for the blood sugar high. This method seems to work well for me. However, there are always those meals with complex carbs that are always difficult to deal with.

I hope you are able to visit the Jack Daniels distillery in Lynchburg, TN. It is a very neat place with lots to see. They have a website with lots of information. Be warned when you go there, the distillery is near a very small town. There is nothing else to do, except enjoy your favorite adult beverage. Enjoy!
