It might be. You dont give enough facts to decide. If for instance you're 19 and the person is 21 and the officer can prove some of the alcohol was purchased for you... crime. Circumstantial evidence could be used to prove those facts. So, the best bet is when you are charged with underage drinking possession/drinking get an attorney. The penalties are rough. Ninety day license suspension on first offense and fines.
