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.

I also thought it was tasty and easy...I wanted it to be a bit healthier though, so I replaced the oil with 2 cups mashed banana instead, reduced the sugar/molasses a lot, and added dates and honey for sweetness. Didn't have any plain vinegar, so added apple cider vinegar (don't know if that impacted taste) Also added more of all the spices. Then baked this all in a loaf tin...really incredible results...highly recommended!!

This recipe is ridiculously easy to make with ingredients most people already have on hand in the pantry. It is very light and moist. My dear husband, who is very selective in the foods he likes, raved about how delishes he thought this was. Definitely a keeper and highly recommended.
