The technical name for alcohol (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ethanol

(Other definitions for ethanol that I've seen before include "Intoxicant in wine, spirits, etc" , "Form of alcohol" , "Ethyl alcohol" , "intoxicating stuff" , "volatile flammable substance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
