Alcohol can actually be distilled from almost any kind of grain (the earliest American moonshiners used rye or barley), but virtually all moonshine made in the United States for the last 150 years has been made with corn.There’s no such mellowing with moonshine, which is why it has such “kick.”There isn’t anything inherently dangerous about moonshine — at least no more dangerous than any other alcoholic drink. I just wish I could find Everclear here. Haven’t added any water yet and I’m not sure why I need to add water. Which isn’t enough to work as a preservative.

But it should still have something that emulsifies the essentials, like a melt and pour soap base or a carrier oil. Thanks for continuing to educate your customers!Everclear is actually available in California in 120 proof form.

Shots of Tequila tend to get downed much quicker than a 12 oz. The only thing to keep in mind is that alcohol can be a little drying to sensitive skin. I now know to let the oils blend with the everclear first and what the percentage should be! Everclear comes in two proofs, 151 (75.5% alcohol) and 190 (95% alcohol). In other states, like mine, you can only find Everclear in state dispensaries called the Alcohol Beverage Control. The link is very informative.

Thank you for all of this helpful information!! To answer your question, to work as a preservative, the alcohol should be at least 120 proof.

Solubilization means to make something (like oil) soluble (dispersable) in water. I’ve used Everclear in a few products in the past but learned so much reading this blog about it. Then, I saw smth about Everclear on PT SEOR page and came back to the blog to read about it. Well that’s good to know. Also, for those who wonder whether you should use this with your kiddos, that’s completely a personal choice. During the Prohibition, moonshine could be as weak as 63 proof and as strong as 190 proof.Everclear is a vodka that is sold in two varieties: 151-proof or 75.5% alcohol and 190-proof or 95% alcohol.

If you can get your hands on 190 proof, this will do a much better job of solubilizing your essential oils.

Hope this helps!I also live in Utah and you can buy it here in the 190 proof from a state liquor store. If you’re unsure of where to find Everclear, I would contact your local beverage control or store that has a liquor license.

You can I never would have even thought about this as an option!

Does everclear have an odor and isn’t all vodka a preservative…Is it nongmo?Glad you enjoyed the post!

So how do you use Everclear as a solubilizer? I am thankful for all the insight PT shares on a constant basis!Unfortunately, Everclear isn’t sold in my state.
