One study examined how alcohol affected bacteria in the mouth and found that a beverage with 40% alcohol (like straight vodka) was somewhat effective in inhibiting bacteria growth, particularly over at least a 15 minute period. Alcohol with a 10% concentration, like in some beers and wines, was pretty much ineffective.
