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.

This ice cream was incredible! I loved the flavor. I'm not normally a fan of nuts in ice cream but I managed to eat several bowls of this.
