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.

Drizzle peanut oil onto a hot stainless steel grill or wok. Immediately add garlic and ginger and cook until slightly browned. Add shrimp. Cook until halfway done (about 1 to 1 1/2 minutes), stirring the whole time.
Add lime and tequila and cook, continually stirring, for 1 to 2 more minutes until shrimp is pink and tender.
Serve right away over rice or just by themselves.
cook's notes
Great leftover chilled over salad. For an added flavor, add sesame seeds during cooking right after the tequila and lime. The sauce really blends well with the seeds.

It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).
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.
