You can't. Alcohol is metabolized in the liver, not stored there, so there's no need to "cleanse" it of alcohol anyway.

Ethanol can cause liver damage, but it's not because it's sloshing around in there, it's because its metabolite (ethanal) is itself toxic and may cause cell damage before it can be further metabolized to the relatively safe ethanoic acid (which is then converted to acetyl-CoA and enters the citric acid cycle).
