Hello Vasu,.
You can use Packmol (http://www.ime.unicamp.br/~martinez/packmol/), as
sugessted by david case.
With packmol you can add N number etanol and also N number of water.

This is my trick to use packmol :
 - use protein, etanol and water file PDB wtihout hidrogen, as you will got
H with LEAP.
 - you can use ethanol frcmod from amber or you can make with antechamber.
with antechamber, we got prep -file, continue with parmchk , we got
frcmod.etoh

- You should know size of the box, so we can know the volume. So we can
predict how many water molekul if the box is full.

sincerely yours,
