Ah, Alcohol, blessing and curse! My grandmother swore by Lydia Pinkham's Herbal Compound, a popular remedy for "female complaints", that dated from the 1870s but which is still around today in modified form. The original alcohol content escapes me but it was something like 22%. Mrs. Pinkham, born a Quaker, knew what she was doing when she whipped up that brew. Couple toots of that during your monthlies and you'll be feeling finer than frog hair. I say it beats the hell out of prescription and OTC pharmas, opioids, etc..
