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.

These are awesome! But, I didn't want to mess with melting chocolate (I always manage to burn it) so immediately after removing from the oven I sprinkled the coconut layer with a mixture of semi-sweet and dark chocolate chips. They melted quickly and I spread with a knife.
