Will vodka convert into sugar?

Vodka will not convert into sugar. Like many alcoholic beverages (not including alcopops or mixed drinks with non-alcoholic mixers, e.g. highballs), the ethanol is the result of yeast converting sugar (and in stronger liquors, the result of distilling - which ups the concentration by a lot). However, if you let certain liquors oxidize with the help of a live bacterial culture (and please don't quote me on this), they will create acetic acid in them and produce vinegar (not all liquors or alcoholic beverages can be made into vinegar!).
