Alkoholipõhistele

Alkoholipõhistele refers to things that are alcohol-based. This term is commonly used in Estonian to describe products or substances that contain alcohol as a primary ingredient. For example, alcoholic beverages like beer, wine, and spirits are inherently alkoholipõhistele.

Beyond beverages, the term can also apply to various other products. Disinfectants, particularly hand sanitizers, are often alkoholipõhistele, using alcohol to kill germs. Certain cleaning agents also utilize alcohol for their effectiveness in dissolving grease and grime. Cosmetics, such as perfumes, colognes, and some hairsprays, frequently incorporate alcohol as a solvent or carrier for fragrances. Medical preparations, including some topical antiseptics and tinctures, are also alkoholipõhistele. The presence of alcohol in these diverse products serves different purposes, from intoxication and disinfection to dissolving and preserving.
