alcoholize
Add ethanol to
To alcoholize is to saturate or treat with alcohol, or to convert into alcohol through fermentation.
The term appears in technical contexts—chemistry, medicine, food production—more than everyday speech.
A person who has been alcoholized has been made drunk, though this usage is rare and somewhat jocular: We were thoroughly alcoholized by the end of the reception.
