Non-beverage alcohols are manufactured liquids that contain alcohol but are not intended for consumption, such as medicinal tinctures, aftershave, alcohol-based anti-freeze, antiseptics, and eau-de-colognes. A survey of 17 Russian cities has found that these products are widely available, highly concentrated, and cheaper than standard Russian vodka.
