<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>A new, natural, hydrophobic deep eutectic solvent (NADES) based on DL‐menthol and palmitic acid is adopted for the extraction of alcohols from aqueous phase. DL‐menthol is used as a hydrogen bond acceptor and palmitic acid, being a natural organic acid, as a hydrogen bond donor. The synthesis is carried out by the addition of DL‐menthol and palmitic acid in a defined molar ratio. Physical properties of NADES along with water stability are then measured. Liquid–liquid equilibria (LLE) of lower alcohols, namely, DES (1) + lower alcohols (ethanol/1‐propanol/1‐butanol) (2) + water (3) are carried out at <jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 1 atm and <jats:italic>T</jats:italic> = 298.15 K. LLE results show type‐I phase behavior, where alcohol is preferentially attracted toward DES. The tie lines are then regressed via nonrandom two liquid and universal quasichemical models, which give root mean square deviation (RMSD) in the range of 0.29–0.35% and 0.39–0.75%, respectively. Finally, the quantum‐chemical‐based conductor‐like screening model‐segment activity coefficient is used to predict the tie lines, which gives an RMSD of 2.1–5.2%. A hybrid extractive distillation flowsheet is then used for scale up, process economics, and solvent recovery aspects in ASPEN using DES as a “pseudocomponent.”</jats:p>
