Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

While we don't want to call this cocktail a health drink, it sure is packed with good stuff! Blueberries are considered antioxidants and have lots of other nutritional value. You can also make your own blueberry juice by crushing 1/2 pound of fresh blueberries and straining the juice through a fine mesh sieve. This recipe works well with other fruit juices as well.

4 ounces blueberry juice
3 ounces light rum
1 lime, juice only
2 dashes grenadine
finely crushed ice
1 lime twist
Combine the blueberry juice, rum, lime juice, grenadine and ice in a cocktail shaker and shake to combine.
Strain the mixture into a martini glass and serve garnished with a lime twist, if desired.

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 Italian cheese is so versatile that it can be used in both sweet and savory recipes from cheesecakes to lasagnas.
