INEBRIATE means to make someone drunk or intoxicated, or to be in a state of intoxication. 'Drunken' is the correct synonym meaning affected by alcohol. 'Dreamy' means abstracted in thought, 'unsteady' means not stable, and 'stupefied' means stunned or numb. Only 'drunken' specifically refers to the state of alcohol intoxication that 'inebriate' denotes.
