How can I tell the difference between vodka and rubbing alcohol?

I was thinking about this for the past couple of weeks. I am a vodka drinker and what if someone wanted to be a dick and switch my shot of booze with that stuff. How would I be able to protect myself?

    Popov might smell like rubbing alcohol, but it isn't. Rubbing alcohol has additives in it so you can't drink it (it will make you vomit). Popov is sort of cheap, but it will work OK in mixed drinks.
