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 is a really fantastic chutney! I made a few small changes, such as dicing the tomatoes and using chopped shallots rather than the small onions, but the result was great! It seems very spicy at first, but settles into a perfect balance. I will make this recipe again and again.
