Really no way for us to tell for sure. A lot depends on how quickly you were able to soak it up and get dry.

I had a similar incident on 3G MDX - I spilled mocha or latte, and the IDS mode button became somewhat sticky. I tried sanitizer gel, did not help. Also tried alcohol, it helped a little but did not completely remedy the issue. So I bet you will get similar result, but no harm giving it a try.

Douse it with this
CRC QD Plastic Safe Liquid Contact Cleaner CRC QD Plastic Safe Liquid Contact Cleaner
and see if it brings it back to life. You don't have much to lose at this juncture.
Wiping it down will do nothing. You need to get to where the beverage went.
