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.

I found this recipe on a "bing" search earlier today. Made it for dinner, substituting fresh parsley for the dill, and olive oil for the corn oil and making my own veggie broth with pulp left over from juicing..........and it turned out deliciously!!! Thanks for the recipe. I'm sure I'll make it, or a variation again soon (since my soups never turn out the same twice). Recipes are guidelines for me, as I usually don't follow exactly. This one is definitely a keeper. Thanks!~ Lisa B.
