You get alcohol by using yeast, water, and a source of sugar. You need a container with a water trap so you can keep oxygen out but let the carbon dioxide out. Brewing wine, beer etc is making alcohol so you use grain, fruits, root vegetable, etc water, and yeast

The simplest way is sugar, yeast, water, and a container [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txm7eu8KxVI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=txm7eu8KxVI)

You could even use toilet paper [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-mWK_kcZMs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v-mWK_kcZMs)

There is not a strict definition of what organic is outside of chemistry.

You can make alcohol from natural gas, you use a water stream and a catalyst to produce it. It is an organic chemical reaction as natural gas it organic but that is nothing appropriate for non-industrial production.
