Fun Food Holidays™ October 4th is National Vodka Day

National Vodka Day

Vodka was first consumed for "medicinal purposes," not happy hour. Russians and Poles tend to drink it neat regardless of the occasion. But since WWII, vodka has risen to become the world's most popular distilled spirit.

Celebrate National Vodka Day by choosing a cocktail recipe from CDK. What'll it be, a screwdriver, vodka martini, gimlet, how about a Bloody Mary?
