Vodka is, was, and always will be best as a drink that gets you drunk.
But vodka can also come in pretty handy for other things around the house. Here are some alternative uses for vodka.
DIY Mouthwash
Mix a cup of cheap vodka with 9 tablespoons of cinnamon to make a great DIY adult-only mouthwash.
Deodorize Your Feet and Shoes
If your feet are stinky, spray with vodka to clean your feet and stinky sweat glands. Pour some in a spray bottle with water and use it to spray your stinky shoes.
Clean Funky Towels
If you have some towels that smell downright funky, you can add 1/3 cup of vodka into your wash cycle along with detergent to get rid of the pungent smells. Once the washer fills up, stop it so that the towels can soak for an hour before you resume the cycle.
Jellyfish Stings
Disinfect, heal, and soothe your jellyfish sting by pouring some vodka on it.
Wash Windows
Mix a cup of vodka, 1/4 cup of vinegar, and 1/2 teaspoon of liquid soap in a spray bottle for the best damn window spray you’ve ever seen.
Kill Weeds
Mix some vodka, water, and dish soap in a spray bottle and spray it directly on weeds to kill them.
Get Rid of Sticker Residue
Scrub the residue with some vodka to remove the stickiness left over from peeling off a price tag or sticker.
Extend the Life of Cut Flowers
Add some vodka to the water in your flower vase to kill bacteria and extend the life of your flowers.
Fried Chicken
Get your fried chicken skin super crispy by adding some vodka to the batter to slow down the evaporation process and make your crust nice and crispy.
Creamy Ice Cream
If you’re making some homemade ice cream, you’ll want to make sure that you add a tablespoon of vodka so that your ice cream doesn’t harden too fast or over-freeze.
Shiny, Smooth Hair
Pour an ounce of vodka into your shampoo bottle to make your hair shiny and combat frizz. The vodka will wash away the pH build up.
Soothe Poison Ivy
Need a poison ivy fix before you can get to the drug store, like a.s.a.p? Pour some vodka on it before it starts to spread.
Clean Jewelry
Soak your rings in vodka for five minutes to get it super clean.
Diffuser Booster
Add 1/4 cup of vodka to your oil diffuser to boost your scent and make it last longer.
Make Vanilla, Mint, Lemon or Orange Extract
Does your recipe call for an extract? Why not make your own? If you do, you’ll need some vodka because it’s one of the main ingredients.
