Old Forester As Windshield Fluid

Here’s something you don’t see every day. Received this photo from a friend down in South Alabama. Apparently the windshield wiper fluid sold at stores doesn’t work in the cold weather they’ve been experiencing. He told me that Old Forester works perfectly and keeps his windshield ice free. I’m giving him an A+ for creativity but a C+ for frugality.

Anyone else ever give this a try in a pinch?
