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.

If you don't think lemon, olives, and chicken would work together, a tagine or two in Marrakesh would win you over in a heartbeat. Until you can make it there, let this recipe hold you over. A bed of couscous really seals the deal for this Morrocan specialty.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
