If you drink 1.75 ounces of liquor per week are you alcoholic?

The amount you drink doesn't directly determine if you are an alcoholic. If it's 1.75 OUNCES a week, it is unlikely you are physically addicted to alcohol. If you aren't physically addicted, you aren't an alcoholic. If you meant 1.75 liters, that is a very different story. Not being addicted doesn't mean you aren't an alcohol abuser. Do you have recurring negative aspects in your life because you drink, yet you continue to drink? Don't count the anger or condemnation of teetotaling friends of family members. If yes, and you continue to drink, you are an alcohol abuser and need to consider whether what you are doing is worth the problems caused.

Since an appetizer comes at the beginning of a meal, whatever comes last would be the opposite: it could be an after dinner drink or dessert. Or another way to look at it would be that the opposite would be something to settle your stomach after you are all done eating. A digestif is an alcoholic drink served at the end that is meant to do just that.
