Alcohol and breastfeeding

Anyone ever use those alcohol test strips for breastmilk?? Or did you just go ahead and give baby the milk? I had a bachelorette party on Saturday and pumped the whole day. I pumped before brunch. Had one drink with brunch that I didn’t finish. Then went and got our nails done for 2 hours, pumped when that was finished. Had a glass of champagne while getting ready for dinner. Pumped before dinner. Had one drink with dinner around 7ish. Went to a drag show and had a drink and a half. Pumped on the way home and again when I got home because I didn’t feel empty. I don’t want to dump all this milk but the test strips are saying there is alcohol present.
