Clonazepam is a long acting medication that shouldn't be mixed with any alcohol intake for 4 to 5 days, even after one dose, if you wish to be safe. It's not just drowsiness we worry about but also impaired judgement, increase in reaction time & decrease in motor skills.

Potentially a rather bad idea to drink alcohol and take a potent benzodiazepine concurrently. Additive side effects can result, with drowsiness, imbalance, and incoordination preventing safe driving, activities at heights, and prudent use of power equipment.
