No It Doesn't Matter What Kind Of Vinegar You Use

The "active" part in vinegar is acetic acid. Baking soda (Sodium Bicarbonate) is essentially a solid form of carbon dioxide which will be released in the presence of acid, thus inflating the balloon with primarily carbon dioxide.

It may be difficult to calculate the exact concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar to determine how much vinegar and baking soda to use, but it probably doesn't have to be exact.

Acetic Acid + Sodium Bicarbonate --> Sodium Acetate + Water + Carbon Dioxide.

CH3COOH + NaHCO3 --> CH3COONa + H2O + CO2
