Fear of Coronavirus Has Lead to People Inventing Their Own Hand Sanitizer
In fears of the spread of Coronavirus, shelves have been cleared for hand sanitizer and disinfectant in stores. But apparently, many people are taking the matter into their own hands, forming “hand sanitizer” concoctions with their own methods of madness. What’s the secret ingredient to their homemade hand sanitizer? Vodka. Tito’s vodka.
This has become so popular, Tito’s line of vodka has been issuing out statements, saying there is no way to make sanitizer from vodka. It doesn’t work that way.
Per the CDC, hand sanitizer needs to contain at least 60% alcohol. Tito's Handmade Vodka is 40% alcohol, and therefore does not meet the current recommendation of the CDC. Please see attached for more information. pic.twitter.com/J5ifkV3Jah

Whether these ideas came from vodka-induced experiments, the fact of the matter is, you cannot make hand sanitizer from vodka. You’re better off enjoying the martini.
