What tends to speed up the absorption of alcohol fruit punch water or carbonated beverages?

These do not speed up the absorption of alcohol. The typical body processes alcohol at the rate of 1 unit per hour. There is no quick fix for absorption. Although I'm not sure about the effect of fruit punch on alcohol absorption, carbonated beverages DO increase alcohol absorption, I think the previous answer is confusing alcohol absorption with alcohol metabolism. In particular the increased temperature of your body causes the CO2 gas to come out of solution and speeds up alcohol assimilation into the blood stream. Assuming the same amount of alcohol as a non-carbonated beverage, the increased speed of assimilation will increase the rate at which alcohol can go to your body's tissues (with the exception of fat), ALTHOUGH this will not change the rate of your liver's alcohol metabolism.


Does eating slow down the absorption of alcohol in the blood stream?

The reason why intoxicated people drink coffee is not to slow the absorption of alcohol into the body, but to use caffeine as a stimulant, to counteract the depressant effect of alcohol. One drug fights against the other. But no, coffee does not slow the rate of alcohol absorption into the bloodstream.
