I like to take the plastic bottle of alcohol and poke a 3/32"-1/8" hole in the seal and use it as a squirt bottle. I try to use the 91% alcohol that Wal-Mart sells but I have used the 70% when that was all you can find.
But maybe it's just me...

Alcohol does not displace water. It may mix with water but it does not displace it. In fact, the 91" or 70% you cite is mixed with water so you are sticking water on your gun when you do that. Might as well just use the hairdryer.
