how did they powder ethanol?

I was wondering this myself
Then I thought, maybe you're meant to rehydrate it with ethanol instead of water..?

Well no!
They claim it has 8-9,7% alcohol content, if somebody is going to take spirit bottle to rehydrate (re-ethanolyate?) it, they can take decent bottle of wine too... Doesn't make sense at all as portable product.
On the other hand, I've heard of "powdered" ethanol which really was just microcapsules with said substance.

Well....
"Hi Matt – actually the technology to produce powdered alcoholic drinks has existed since 1974! Alcohol can be absorbed in sugar crystals and essentially becomes powdered – hence why the Trek ‘n Eat contains so much maltodextrin – a type of sugar. It’s likely the purpose of this ingredient is not to add sweetness, but to contain the alcohol."
