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 directions say "steak" in them - is it supposed to have steak sauce? because I can't imagine steak added to it. I made it with the ingredients listed in the list and it was ok. I didn't love it though. Maybe the steak sauce is needed?

This was really good! You can vary the flavor by what spaghetti sauce you use. I didn't add the zucchini because the frozen vegetable blend I used already had zucchini in it.
