Water, alcohol and sugar are polar. But when it comes to ethanol, the polarity is affected by the carbonWater, alcohol and sugar are polar. But when it comes to ethanol, the polarity is affected by the carbon chair attached to the oxygen. That greatly reduces the ability to solvate sugar. So sugar has a slight solubility in ethanol, but not great. chair attached to the oxygen. That greatly reduces the ability to solvate sugar.
