Does wine vinegar have alcohol in it?
Every kind of vinegar contains a very small quantity of alcohol, industrial vinegar makers use an accelerated oxygenation process that converts almost all the alcohol in the wine into acetic acid in less than 24 hours.
If you make your own white wine vinegar, and you use it soon after adding a complement of white wine, it may contain a bit more alcohol, as the traditional process takes about 3 weeks to complete.
Since the 80s, French vinegars are regulated as below:
- Vinegar not from wine (cider, alcohol): less than 0.5% of alcohol
- Vinegar from wine: less than 1.5% of alcohol
- Vinegar from fortified wine (Banyuls): less than 3% of alcohol
Since the early 1900s and until the 80s, French red wine vinegar was mandated to contain at least 6% of alcohol, as a way to use the overproduction of wine.
The US FDA does not regulate the amount of alcohol in vinegar, only the minimum amount of acetic acid (4%.)
White wine vinegar has a very limited use anyway, like for a beurre blanc (a butter sauce for fish) or some recipes to bake fish. In both cases, it is cooked and all the traces of alcohol are the first to evaporate.
For a traditional French dressing (vinaigrette), only aged red wine vinegar should be used. Industrial vinegar is much too acidic, overpowering and one-note.

Why does drinking vinegar stop hiccups?
Its tasting vinegar not actually drinking it.
However, its thought that one tea spoon of vinegar tells the vagus nerve that communicates with the stomach that its another sensation to stop what's its doing and focus on the sensation of the bitter liquid. The vagus nerve is a cranial nerve that innervates the stomach and conveys sensory information about the body's organs to the brain. When distracted by overwhelming information of another sort i.e the vinegars taste, it basically tells the brain that something more important has come up and the hiccuping should probably be stopped.
There are a number of other things you can try yourself that may help to stop your hiccups. for instance
tasting vinegar
holding your breath for a short period
sipping ice-cold water
biting on a lemon
pulling your knees up to your chest
leaning forward to compress your chest
swallowing granulated sugar
breathing into a paper bag (never place a bag over your head)
