Alcohol actually raises your blood pressure. It increases your heart rate, as well as constricts your blood vessels, resulting in a greater volume of blood being pumped through less area - higher blood pressure.

Basically, drinking alcohol influences a persons blood alcohol level. Also drinking water decreases it.
There is no relation between the two. I see no problem with it unless there was a large amount of alcohol consumed. Alcohol will raise blood pressure and so does excessive heat. So the two combined could contribute to a dangerously high blood pressure.
They can all affect BP readings.
