Homemade liqures have always gone over well for us. Get cheap grain alcohol, steep with (something) for flavour, (timing to taste) then dilute with simple syrup 1:1.
The something can be fruit, herbs, nuts, whatever. Even candy, though skip the simple syrup then. You get the equivalent of fancy expensive booze for the cost of rotgut.
You can also make aftershave the same way, minus the simple syrup of course. Toss some bay leaves and aromatic wood in a bit of rotgut and Bob is your uncle.
