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.

1 cup packed fresh herbs like rosemary, basil, sage, thyme, marjoram, oregano or tarragon (or a combination)
OPTIONAL (any combination)
chopped garlic
dried chili peppers

directions
Place the oil and the herbs and spice in the insert of the slow cooker. Cook on low, uncovered, for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, and then turn the cooker off.
Allow the oil to cool for about 20 minutes, and then pour it through a strainer lined with cheesecloth or a clean paper towel or paper coffee filter into a metal bowl.
When the oil is completely cool, transfer it to a clean glass jar, cover and refrigerate for up to 1 month. After that, the flavor may fade.
The oil may cloud under refrigeration, but it will become clear again at room temperature.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
