Answers:
lots of sugar. each kind would have different amounts

None

Hm.. about 9.5 grams so round that up and it's about 10 grams of sugar. Now that's what I call "sugar alchol"

none. Presuming alcohol you mean the kind that men drink.... ethanol. Ethanol is C2H5OH and cannot be a sugar as it doesn't have enough hydroxyl groups. Simple sugars, both short and long chain have the atomic ratio of 1:2:1 C:H:O check the site shown below.

pure alcohol contains no sugar as alcohol is the byproduct of the fermentation of sugars by yeasts. However this said in beers and wines there is always a small percentage of sugar which does not ferment as the yeast gets to a point where it just says stuff it. Distilled spirits however should have no sugars remaining unless added after distillation.
