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.

1 cup shelled black walnuts
1 cup 100-proof vodka
1/2 cup bourbon
1 1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Toast walnuts. Transfer to clean 1 quart jar with tight fitting lid. Add vodka and bourbon and cover tightly right away so alcohol doesn't evaporate. Let stand in a cool dark place for 1 month, shaking occasionally.
Use a fine mesh strainer to strain out walnuts. Discard. Transfer liqueur to clean container.
Bring corn syrup and water to a boil over medium high heat, stirring constantly to prevent scorching. Remove from heat and let stand until just warm. Add syrup and vanilla to liqueur, cover and age for 1 month.
