can alcohol make me gain 4 pounds?

i'm not much of a drinker but this week I've been having 1-2 shots of vodka every night. the calorie content of vodka can't be why I've gained 4 pounds because my daily total calorie has not changed.

usually I would be sure the 4 pounds are due to water weight from the alcohol but I know I've been pretty dehydrated already this week. so my question is can the alcohol make me even more dehydrated and lead to more water weight gain? or have I somehow put on actual weight?
