ELI5: Why do people snore more after they've been drinking?

Alcohol causes most muscles in your body to relax. Including the muscles in your mouth, throat and upper airway. When you go to sleep in that state - drunk - the airway collapses a bit (the supporting muscles are weak now) and that is why you snore.
