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 is quite good. Lots of good vegetables, nice sauce. But for the amount of potchkying it took, the tasty factor was only just good. Which is why i put a 4-out-of-5 and not a 5 out-of-5 Thanks for the recipe we enjoyed it!
