Alcohol is made from the fermentation of a sugars from certain plant product. Rum I believe is fermented sugar cane by-product ( molasses) wine is made from fermented fruit juice of grapes or whatever the case may be( strawberries in this case) beer is cereal grains, vodka is made from potatoes, cereal grains, and sometimes fruit. Anyways the fermentation is caused by cultures added, such as yeast. The yeast then interacts with the sugar in the juice to create ethanol and carbon dioxide. The rest is really complex and i don't want to go into that. Just so you know, I haven't studied enology ( study of wine making), But i work in the food industry and work a lot with cultures and fermented products. Hope that helps.
