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.

ingredients
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 onions, sliced
3 cloves garlic, smashed and peeled
1 package (32 ounce size) vegetable broth
2 cans (28 ounce size) Italian plum tomatoes, drained
1 can (15 ounce size) tomato sauce
1/4 cup vodka
6 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
2 cups half and half
directions
In a medium skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, stirring often, for 30 seconds.
Add the broth, tomatoes, tomato sauce, vodka, parsley, salt and sugar to the slow cooker; add the sauteed onions and garlic. Cover and cook on high heat to stew the tomatoes, 5 hours. Discard the parsley sprigs.
Using an immersion blender or a food processor, puree the soup in batches (be careful-the liquid is hot). Stir in the half-and-half. Cook in the covered slow cooker on low heat until heated through, 20 to 30 minutes.
