First, place the beverage in a container that can be sealed (a flask would be perfect.) Connect this container to another that is submerged in ice water. It may be a good idea to attach a balloon to this apparatus to allow for the air expansion.

Then heat up the container with the beverage in it until it starts simmering (don't make it boil rapidly because then you'll be creating water vapour.) In theory, the Ethanol will evaporate and go to the second container and then condense on the sides of the container.

This process will undoubtfully ruin the taste of the wine or beer, but you'll have a very strong cleaning agent in the other container (that you should certainly not consider drinking!)

How do you separate mixture of methanol and ethyl acetate?

You can separate a mixture of methanol and ethyl acetate by using fractional distillation. Since they have different boiling points (methanol: 64.7°C, ethyl acetate: 77.1°C), you can heat the mixture to a temperature between the two boiling points to selectively vaporize and collect each component.
