Alcohol isn't a drug. It's a drink.

> Alcohol isn't a drug. It's a drink.
It isn't, it's a molecule within a drink. Alcohol on its own is not a drink.

I suppose technically it's a drink, but pure alcohol (ethanol) is a drug. Similar to how Red Bull is a drink but it contains caffeine (a drug), or opium tea is a drink but contains a drug. Beer is a drink containing a small amount of a drug similar to Red Bull.

Ethanol also commonly called alcohol, ethyl alcohol, and drinking alcohol, is the principal type of alcohol found in alcoholic beverages, Solvent
Ethanol is miscible with water and is a good general purpose solvent. It is found in paints, tinctures, markers, and personal care products such as mouthwashes, perfumes and deodorants. However, polysaccharides precipitate from aqueous solution in the presence of alcohol, and ethanol precipitation is used for this reason in the purification of DNA and RNA.
