Here's a good article on vodka dosing.

After researching this, though, I went the bio pellet route instead. I am using the Vertex Pro-Bio Pellets using a Vertex UF-20 reactor.

Hmmm ive been vodka dosing for months now , but ive seen no improvement in my tank .Now i read all this info from you guys and find out the vodka is suposssed to go in the fish tank . I guess my headaches will go away now but reefkeeping is going to be way less fun.

before you start dosing vodka, are your nitrates and phosphates high?

What ever you do, go slowly.

Another approach is to remove all of your fish. :-)

No no you can keep on dosing, just add a tiny bit to your tank every time you dose yourself. 
