No. They have very different densities. There are several types of alcohol, but for these purposes, we will use ethanol, the alcohol found in drinks. Density of water ≈ 1g/cm3 Density of ethanol = 0.789g/cm3 Density of mercury = 13.5 g/cm3 So water is about 20% denser than alcohol, and mercury is more than 13 times denser than water. Note that the density given from ethanol is for pure ethanol. Most alcoholic beverages are mixtures, with densities between those of water and pure ethanol.
