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.

This soup was out of this world. I added more liquid: wine and much more olive oil to veggies. Also put some of the bacon drippings in for flavor. Werved it with fresh grated parmesan cheese..it was a hit
