One update, while I don’t condone it, NY allows consumption of alcohol in private between ages 18 and 21. But those persons are not allowed to drink their BAC above 0.02%. In NJ its still prohibited to drink alcohol until your 21. Just in case you were wondering, a 140lbs person who drinks 5oz of wine ends up with a BAC of 0.03%. Based on calculation. So in NY you can safely give an 18 year old 5oz of wine. This is not a legal opinion just my understanding of the law IMHO.
