Who doesnt love Vodka? Generally we take shots of Vodka, without releasing what more we could do with it. A couple of tips to maximize the use of Vodka. Dont just Drink it - USE IT !!
- To remove a bandage painlessly,saturate the bandage with vodka. The stuff desolves adhesive.
- To clean the caulking around bathtubs and showers, fill a trigger-spray bottle with vodka, spray the caulking, let set five minutes and wash clean. The alcohol in the vodka kills mold and mildew.
- To clean your eyeglasses, simply wipe the lenses with a soft, clean cloth dampened with vodka. The alcohol in the vodka cleans the glass and kills germs.
- Prolong the life of razors by filling a cup with vodka and letting your safety razor blade soak in the alcohol after shaving. The vodka disinfects the blade and prevents rusting.
- Spray vodka on wine stains, scrub with a brush, and then blot dry
- Using a cotton ball, apply vodka to your face as an astringent to cleanse the skin and tighten pores.
- Add a jigger of vodka to a 12-ounce bottle of shampoo. The alcohol cleanses the scalp, removes toxins from hair, and stimulates the growth of healthy hair
- Fill a sixteen-ounce trigger-spray bottle with vodka and spray bees or wasps to kill them
- Pour one-half cup vodka and one-half cup water into a Ziploc freezer bag and freeze for a slushy, refreshing ice pack for aches, pain or black eyes.
- Fill a clean, used mayonnaise jar with freshly packed lavender flowers, fill the jar with vodka, seal the lid tightly and set in the sun for three days. Strain liquid through a coffee filter, then apply the tincture to aches and pains.
- To relieve a fever, use a washcloth to rub vodka on your chest and back as a liniment.
- To cure foot odor, wash your feet with vodka.
- Vodka will disinfect and alleviate a jellyfish sting.
- Pour vodka over an area affected with poison ivy to remove the urushiol oil from your skin.
- Swish a shot of vodka over an aching tooth. Allow your gums to absorb some of the alcohol to numb the pain.

And you expect people to drink a liquid that has alternate purposes of cleaning toilets! Foot odor!
On second thought, I think your post is really helpful to stash vodka at home and if someone asks we will give Reetesh some clicks

BTW - do you really think YOU would even spare a few drops of YOUR Vodka to apply to anything else other than drinking?!!?! I highly doubt that… Monty Singh loves Vodka waaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy too much for that - this is know well hhaahha!

ROFLMAO! I just read the title and didn’t even bother reading the whole thing. Vodka for ANY OTHER purpose than drinking is plain heresy! And what do you mean dont just drink it, use it!!!!!! drinking it IS in fact using it! Every single drop of it. haha

@Manan - Trust me, there are a lot of people out there, who’d go out and try out these steps, and Drink Vodka at the same time
@Devesh - Ever since I QUIT!! ha ha yeah I QUIT - Its been 2 months now - I dont think I’d mind sparing my vodka for some cleanliness
@Kaush - Tu bahut jaldi maregi !!! Been there, Done that !!
@Manpreet - Now thats something. Did Vodka really help? I’ve heard of using Potatoes to clean the windscreen if the wipers aint working

Actually… it rained that day.. and the windscreen was very dirty.. and there wasn’t any washer fluid in my car.. neither I had any water to clean the windscreen… so I thought why not try some vodka (the only thing i had in my car at that moment)… and guess what.. it worked…!!

Okay dude - This post talks about wasting Vodka in small quantities - That was a lot of wastage !!! A bottle of Smirnoff costs around INR 450 !!
You should have considered buying a Bisleri / Aqua Fina !!
