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.

Waffles were already borderline dessert, so this recipe just decided to kick them over the edge. A zing of citrus zest gives these waffles a pound cake like flavor.

1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons finely chopped lemon or orange zest
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon or orange juice
1 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup buttermilk
In mixer bowl, beat sugar and butter until light and fluffy, stopping to scrape bowl occasionally. Beat in eggs, 1 at a time, until blended. Add lemon zest and juice.
In small bowl, whisk together flour, salt, baking powder and baking soda to blend well. On low speed, add flour mixture, in 3 parts, alternately with buttermilk, in 2 parts. Mix just until blended, stopping to scrape bowl often. Batter will be very thick.
Spoon batter onto hot, greased waffler and bake.
