I'd sorta been hoping somebody would mention Everclear. Maybe mixed
half-n-half with distilled water. I mean, that's pretty much what vodka
is, right?

Just kidd'n!

There's a reason for that. The only thing I've found it good for is
making herbal tinctures. The stuff tastes horrible, even in mixed
drinks. You have to have a serious desire to get drunk to use
Everclear for anything but cleaning of external cuts and scrapes or
tinctures (which have to mellow for a long time).
