The majority of alcoholic beverages are not odorless due to the large amounts of colorings and preservatives that are mixed in with the alcohol to produce the beverage.

The only alcoholic drink that you will find that is closest to being odorless, or rather, with the least odor, is vodka because the refining process that is carried out in order to make the drink uses minimum ingredients.

I'm afraid that I cannot help you with how to create an odorless alcoholic drink; however, I can inform you of how to make alcohol for other uses such as gas.

Ethanol is an odorless alcohol that can be used as a gas alternative; however, you must have a special permit in order to make it yourself because in many states making your own ethanol is illegal. Also, I cannot stress enough that you should not use this for consumption.

Firstly, you will need to grind up some form of grain such as rice or corn and then weigh it. Once you've done that you'll have to make sure that you use an ethanol calculator and record the weight of your feedstock and how much water your boiler can hold. The result will inform you of how much yeast and sugar you'll need.

Make sure you have some alpha amylase enzyme that matches the measurements of the water and the feedstock. You will need to wait an hour for the mixture to boil, and after that take it off the boil and add glucoamylase.

Once you've mixed in the yeast you need to leave it for three to five days in order for it to ferment. After that time period you should pour the mixture through a distiller to get rid of any excess water. Store the mixture in an inflammable area.
