Best Answer

Approximately 80% of alcohol is absorbed in the upper portion of the small intestine. The rate of absorption depends upon things like:

  • the concentration of alcohol in the beverage - the greater the concentration, the faster the absorption
  • the type of drink - Carbonated Beverages tend to speed up the absorption of alcohol
  • whether the stomach is full or empty - food slows down alcohol absorption.

No. Alcohol is not a food, and is not affected by the digestive system. After passing into the bloodstream it is metabolized by liver enzymes.
