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.

The gorgonzola sauce was great! The amount of "hot" sauce seemed a bit light for 4 chicken pieces, so feel free to adjust that to your liking. This would also be great as chicken strips or turned into a salad (chicken strips, the gorgonzola sauce as a dressing over a bed of lettuce).
