An universal solvent doesn't exist.
A solvent is the name given to any substance which dissolves another substance (the solute). This results in a solution, which is a mixture of the two substances. Your question does not really make sense, because any solute can ONLY be dissolved in a solvent.
It is a solvent liquid. For example, water is a solvent as it can dissolve sugar crystals (and many other things).
