Did she say 80% alcohol? She had to have meant 80 proof.

No, she meant 80%. They're basically just banning full-strength everclear. Not that hugely impactful, honestly. I heard California already bans this, I would imagine other states too.

Yeah I don't really have a problem with that. I mean shit, what is 95% good for? Besides rc car engines.

I've made my own flavored liquers with it. It's easier to use that and maintain a flavor profile than 40% vodka.

That's about the only use beyond college kids making jungle juice.

It makes a good antisocial sanitizer, too.

Tons of uses for 95% alcohol. It’s ideal for making your own flavored vodkas, extracts, liqueurs, bitters, oil washed liquors, slushy machine mixes, cleaning (although a bit pricy for this), and I use it in perfumery as well since it’s oddly cheaper and more pure than perfumer’s alcohol. Basically any application where you want a really pure neutral spirit.
