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.

ingredients
2 cups cream
1 teaspoon dried lavender
2 tablespoons fresh lemon balm, chopped
1 cup sugar
3 egg yolks
2 cups milk
1 pinch salt
directions
Mix the cream with the lavender, lemon balm and half the sugar. Bring to a boil, then turn off heat and let steep for 20 minutes.
Whisk together the egg yolks and the remaining sugar until light and fluffy. Add the milk and salt and whisk to blend.
Add the milk-egg mixture to the cream and slowly heat, stirring constantly (do not let boil). Cook until the mixture becomes slightly thicker and coats the back of a spoon (5-10 minutes).
Strain the custard into a clean container. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Love the spinach dip at restaurants like TGIFriday's and the Olive Garden? Make it at home with these easy-to-follow copycat recipes.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
