Mouthwash

• Running out of mouthwash before an important interview or first date can seem like a nightmare, but if you have some vodka on hand, you have a good alternative. Mix up to 9 tbsp. of cinnamon with one cup of vodka for a mouthwash substitute. This remedy is most effective when mixed at least two weeks ahead of time and allowed to sit in an airtight container. Swish with your mixture, and rinse your mouth with warm water for clean, fresh breath; just don't swallow any of the homemade mouthwash.
  
  

Laundry

• Stuffy smelling clothes can be a real concern, especially when traveling, but if you have vodka, you're safe. Put vodka in a spray bottle, and spritz clothes for a fresh scent. Vodka kills odor-causing bacteria that gets trapped in your clothing but, when it dries, there is no alcohol scent. You should first spray a test patch before using the vodka on your whole outfit to make sure the vodka does not cause your colors to fade.
  
  

House Freshener

• Much like the way vodka deodorizes clothing, it can also be used to freshen the air inside your home. Put vodka in a spray bottle, and spray on furniture and in the air for a deodorizing spritz. Just like on your clothes, after the vodka dries, you will have no odor or alcohol scent.
  
  

Carpet Cleaner

• While vodka can deodorize your clothes and home, it can also clean your carpet. If you've ever had cat urine, vomit or other lingering odor in your carpet, you know how hard that can be to get out, but vodka can rescue your flooring as well. Spot clean your stain as well as possible with a damp cloth, spray vodka on the spot and allow it to sit for 10 minutes; use an old toothbrush or cloth to scrub the soiled area, and blot dry with paper towels. You may have to repeat this step for particularly dirty areas.
  
  

Foot Deodorizer

• To cure hard-to-get-rid-of foot odor, give your feet a vodka bath. Vodka is a natural deodorizer and will work where regular soaps cannot.
