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.

This salad has a zesty kick to it that is perfect for a picnic or backyard bbq! Serve it with fried chicken, or burgers on the grill. If you can't use fresh corn, you can substitute frozen. Just add it in after the tomatoes.
