I am interested in fortified wine and liqueurs, and I noticed that some recipes say that you can use either grain alcohol or vodka. I've heard that vodka can be made from all sorts of things and the costs from various brands vary quite dramatically. Smirnoff (~$13/fifth) didn't really impress me, and I am not willing to get vodka more expensive than that. Everclear (~$20/fifth) is advertised as tasteless and oderless. Because this is an experiment, I would like to cut costs if possible... Is a bottle of diluted grain alcohol cleaner tasting than two bottles of vodka around the same price?
