It depends on the type of vinegar you are considering.
Certain foods leave an acid or alkaline reside once they are completely burned to ash. This is a function of the type and amount of minerals present in the food. Apple cider vinegar, because of its calcium and potassium mineral content leaves an alkaline residue once it is burned even though the original liquid is an acid.
On the other hand, distilled white vinegar does not leave an alkaline residue since it does not contain any minerals so it is considered an acid food.

Vinegar is in the acidic family, which is why it has a "bite" to it.
