Great question. Carbonation raises the acidity, or ph. Of a beverage making it more quickly bio- available. So in non alcoholic beverages yes it is absorbed slightly quicker. However with Alcoholic Beverages the greatest contributing factor is the level of alcohol or proof of the substance in question. Indeed, 100 proof spirits are absorbed more quickly then, 80 proof spirits and so on. The reason for this is E.T.O.H. Simultaneously strips the mucus membrane away and is absorbed directly though the unprotected and very thin membranes beneath. In point of fact most of the alcohol is absorbed before the spirit reaches your stomach. Carbonic acid reacts the same way in that it strips away the mucus membranes enroute to it's destination. In addition after the alcohol is absorbed, what remains is almost entirely sugar. Which the body uses as fuel, and is designed to absorb the quickest. The human body is a machine that quite simply runs on sugar, in the same way a car runs on gasoline. You can live 3 min. Without air, 3 days without water, and 3 weeks without food. ( though some have lived up to fifty days without food but they were given water sugar and sodium intravenously. Remember the body is a machine. Albeit very complex and infinitely intricate. It is nothing but a machine.

Do sweet drinks make you drunk faster?
it will depend on the alcohol content compared to other drinks. the reason people tend to get drunk faster on sweet drinks such as alco-pops is that they are easy to drink so you drink more of it faster. So it's the amount you drink and speed you drink it that gets you drunk faster. But given a certain amount of alcohol ingested, if it is enough to make you drunk under ordinary circumstanaces, it will make you drunk - and deathly ill to boot - if it is heavily laced with sugar.Say that four straight glasses of white rum will make you reeling drunk. Four straight Bahama Mommas with the same amount of rum will make you reeling drunk and miserably sick , too.
