Probably: The recommended number of drinks/wk for non-pregnant women is 7 or less. If you have a family history of breast cancer, you might want to drink less. Studies have shown a link between alcohol and breast cancer. But alcohol is also associated with a lower risk of heart disease. To make an informed decision about how much to drink, talk to your doctor about your personal risk of these diseases.

You are at the upper: Limit of what is considered safe alcohol use in women - one drink per day or 7 per week, never more than 3 on one occasion. In most people, that amount is unlikely to cause any physical or psychological issues. If you eat right, you actually do not need vitamins, let alone "many" vitamins. I am assuming you put 1.5 oz (one shot) into these drinks - if it is more, than you are exceeding limits.
