Actually, the alcohol is not strong or weak. It is the drink itself that is described this way. I would say that "one drink has a higher (or lower) alcohol rate / percentage than another".

You can colloquially say that a drink is strong or weak to indicate that it has a high or low percentage of alcohol.

If you are referring to beverages, you can say diluted drinks, watered-down drinks or near beer.

Otherwise, say, for example: 70% rubbing alcohol
