The water and the spirit can be easily separated by a method called fractional distillation.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • There are many ways of separating alcohol from water. The most common method is by heating. Water has a higher boiling point when compared to alcohol and the water can be easily evaporated into the air.
  • This method is called Fractional distillation. As it requires a rounded flash, a beaker, and a container. If the content is put under the heat for a certain degree celsius the water in the content is evaporated.
  • It is to be collected and connected to a container. At last, the alcohol and water are separated.
