Really, time is the most effective way of 'sobering up'. Generally the rule is about two hours for every serving of alcohol to be out of your system, but there are a lot of variables, like age, weight, things like that. My suggestion: don't get drunk.

There's not enough information here to determine even a possibility.
Alcohol effects everyone differently.
Your weight, height, age, what you've had to eat, what you're currently drinking and it's alcohol content, if you're a regular drinker etc etc are all factors that need to be put into consideration.
Drinking alot of water will help to flush the alcohol out. Also, eating will help (before and after). Sleep can help.. but may also help bring a nasty hangover in the morning.
Personally, If I were in that position, I'd probably start sobering up by 12 because I drink the same things, same amount, each week.. just not at 10pm.
Also, you mustn't forget it's very dangerous if you're a minor and you let it happen to you. It's late, you're drunk and very vulnerable.. So be smart about it.

If you are drunk, especially at 10pm, your best and SAFEST bet is to sleep it off. All night.
Yes, how much you drink, how long it took you to drink it, and your height and weight ALL affect it.

Everyone's body processes alcohol differently so there's really no way to estimate it. One drink makes your BAC (blood alcohol content) go up to .02 (on average) and the legal limit for 21+ is .08 anything besides zero is illegal in many states if you're under 21. So don't drive after you drink ANYTHING, ideally.
(Those numbers are for Massachusetts but most states are similar)
And if you're drinking a lot(or at all really) make sure someone sober is keeping an eye on you. And nothing helps you truly sober up besides time. Coffee & cold showers may make you FEEL more awake and alert but you still have alcohol in your body.
One thing that doesn make a difference is eating beforehand. Your body will metabolize alchol more slowly if you've eaten.
If you can't tell I've ben studying my driving manual a lot lately :) Hope that helps!
