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.

cook's notes
"The colors of this relish are extremely appealing, with variegated shades of yellow, green and red suspended in the pickling liquid. It would make a great summer hostess gift (and is super strategy for how to get rid of bumper crops of zucchini and yellow squash). The nutmeg and turmeric give this relish a slightly sweet, exotic flavor, which marries surprisingly well with burgers or tofu. I might add a teaspoon of mustard seed to the pickling mixture for a little bit of kick."
