The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

1 package (18.25 ounce size) white cake mix
1 package (large size) strawberry gelatin powder
2 tablespoons flour
1/2 cup water
4 eggs
1/2 box (10 ounce size) frozen sliced strawberries, thawed
3/4 cup vegetable oil
Strawberry Frosting
1/2 cup butter
1 box (16 ounce size) confectioners' sugar
1/2 box (10 ounce size) sliced strawberries with syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Combine cake mix, gelatin, flour, water and eggs. Beat 2 minutes. Add strawberries with syrup to batter and beat 1 minute. Add oil and beat 1 minute.
Pour into two (9-inch) round cake pans. Bake at 350 degrees F for 25 to 35 minutes. When cooled, frost with Strawberry Frosting.
For Frosting: Beat butter until smooth. Add sugar, alternating with strawberries and syrup until smooth. Add vanilla extract and, if necessary, thin with a little milk or cream to spreading consistency.

Made this for valentine's day and it was a huge hit! I garnished it with fresh strawberry slices that were cut in heart shapes. I forgot to get a photo before everyone dug into it!

The cake turned out very nice and moist and very pink. The frosting is overly sweet I thought though and maybe could have just used a cream cheese frosting instead mixed with the strawberries.

I don't know why this only had a 1 star rating. I actually didn't notice that until I came back to write a review. It turned out perfect for me!!! Would have been nice if the other reviewer said why it wasn't good because I had no problems with it and it's a very pretty cake.
