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.

Add crushed chiles and cilantro when serving.
cook's notes
Note that the number of red chiles is a personal choice. It can be as few as half a chile per diner to as many as 8-10 per diner but the dish should retain a balance of flavors and not be overwhelmed by the chiles. Personally I would suggest about 8-12 chiles for this recipe.
Not really intended to be eaten as a separate course, you could serve it with just a serving of steamed white (Jasmine) rice, or together with a Thai meal.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
Keeping a can of frozen orange juice concentrate in the freezer means you can make more than just orange juice. Try it in a variety of orange-flavored recipes.
