directions
Saute bacon in a large soup pot until crisp. Remove with a slotted spoon or spatula and set aside.
To bacon drippings, add onion, carrot, celery, shallot, garlic, apples and sweet potatoes. Saute 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add basil, oregano, thyme and flour. Stir until flour is well mixed and moistened throughout. Add chicken stock and stir occasionally until soup comes to a boil. Turn heat to low and simmer until all ingredients are soft, about 20 minutes.
Puree in a food processor, blender or food mill. Return to soup pot, stir in heavy cream and season to taste with salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce. Keep over very low heat, but do not boil.
To serve, pour soup in bowls and garnish tops with creme fraiche or sour cream, reserved bacon and thyme springs.

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.
