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.

Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
This Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.

Per the previous review, I just omitted the lemon juice as it didn't seem like it would be needed. It's a good recipe and very "warming". We made it for watching a football game outside and it really warmed us up and everyone liked it. I think I will serve it for the holidays too this year.
I like the recipe its a good foundation. I added nutmeg and whole apples cored and sliced. i think the lemon juice was a little much. next time i'll try a little less.
