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.

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

This was good, not necessarily exotic, but quite good. And don't let the list of spices scare you off, the yogurt mellows the flavor out quite nicely. There is still lots of flavor but it's well balanced.
