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.

common recipe questions
Can I use commercially frozen strawberries? Fresh aren't in season right now.
You can use frozen strawberries in place of fresh. If they are in a syrup, omit the sugar (or add it to taste). No need to thaw them ahead of time.
