Not inside the body, except for an extremely rare condition that has only been reported a couple of times. Sugar and water will ferment into alcohol if yeast is present, if the temperature is at "normal" levels.
The sugar combines with the alcohol and as sugar is rapidly absorbed by your body you get an alcohol rush as well as a sugar rush, therefore it gets you drink a hell of alot faster.
Alcohol made from sugars is what humans drink and get drunk from.

Do sugar alcohols contain alcohol?
Sugar alcohols do not contain ethanol (the stuff you drink). The simplest sugar alcohol, ethylene glycol, is the sweet but notoriously toxic chemical used in antifreeze. The higher sugar alcohols are for the most part nontoxic.
What is the difference between alcohol and sugar alcohol?
Alcohol refers to ethanol, the intoxicating ingredient in alcoholic beverages, while sugar alcohols are a type of low-calorie sweetener often used in sugar-free products. Sugar alcohols, like sorbitol and xylitol, are not intoxicating like ethanol but can cause digestive issues in some people if consumed in large amounts.
Is ethyl alcohol a sugar?
No, ethyl alcohol is not a sugar. Ethyl alcohol is a type of alcohol that is produced through fermentation of sugars by yeast. Sugar is a carbohydrate, while ethyl alcohol is a different chemical compound.
Is sugar is soluble in alcohol?
Yes, sugar is soluable in alcohol. I am assuming you mean drinking alcohol although it is soluable in all organic alcohols. The hyrdoxy (-OH) groups on both the sugar and the alcohol allow for hydrogen bonding, making sugar very soluable in alcohol. Hydrogen bonds are also the reason sugar is so soluable in water.
What alcohols contain sugar?
All alcohols contain sugar because alcohol itself is a refined type of sugar, that's why it has so many calories.
Does sugar alcohol make you have to poop?
Sugar alcohols can have a laxative effect, so one should watch how much they consume. See Related Links.

Is lignin a sugar alcohol?
No, lignin is not a sugar alcohol. Lignin is a complex organic polymer found in the cell walls of plants, providing structural support and rigidity. Sugar alcohols, on the other hand, are a type of carbohydrate that are commonly used as sweeteners in foods and beverages.
Are alcohols aromatic or aliphatic?
Alcohols can be either aromatic or aliphatic. Aromatic alcohols contain a benzene ring in their structure, while aliphatic alcohols do not have a benzene ring and are typically straight-chain or branched-chain molecules.
