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.

For Meatballs: In a medium bowl, lightly beat egg. Mix in soft bread crumbs, Parmesan cheese, onion salt, garlic and beef. Shape into 1-inch balls.
In a large Dutch oven, brown meatballs carefully in heated oil. Mix in onion and garlic and cook for about 5 minutes, taking care not to break up meatballs.
Add tomatoes and their liquid, tomato paste, broth, wine, water, sugar, basil, thyme and oregano. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
Add ravioli and cook covered at a gentle boil for 10 to 15 minutes, until they are just tender and no longer taste starchy. Salt to taste. Stir in parsley.
Serve with cheese to sprinkle over the soup.
