The previous answer was entirely incorrect. We apologize.
Caffeine taken with alcohol will offset -- to a degree -- the tendency to become sleepy from the effects of the alcohol. The overall effect, for a short time, is to create a more awake drunk. Caffeine has no practical effect on the level of alcohol in the blood, and will not sober you up. It can, however, fool you into thinking you're more sober so that you do dumb things like try to drive home.
