Here's The Strongest Alcoholic Drink You Can Actually Purchase
BY MICHELLE WELSCH
Polmos Spirytus Rektyfikowany Vodka is 192 proof or 96% alcohol by volume. This clear Polish spirit has been crowned the world's strongest, weightiest liquor.
"Spirytus rektyfikowany" means rectified spirit, a term aptly used to describe alcohol that is intentionally distilled many times to create a drink with a higher alcohol content.
It can take several months for the distillation to be ready for bottling and sale. Spirytus is best used as part of a well-informed repertoire of cocktails or a boozy dessert.
While the alcoholic content of Spirytus may make it seem like the taste is strong, it is neutral and smooth. Home brewers can get creative with infusions and liqueur concoctions.
