During the 25+ years I lived in Interior Alaska, I made my windshield wiper solution. Buy a qt/ltr of the cheapest vodka you can find, mix a cup of Dawn dishwashing detergent with it. At super cold temperatures is will freeze or get slushy, but not at the temperatures most of us will run into. 80 proof will work but 100 proof is better. Everclear will also work, but more expensive. A quart of the mix would get me through most of a winter, most years.
I'd find it hard to waste Vodka on the windshield & then again I'd hate to get pulled over with the thing sinking of Booze! LOL!
