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 1/2 cup water
1 cup long grain white rice
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/2 cup fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons lime juice, fresh
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons water
In a medium saucepan, bring first measure of water to a boil. Add rice and salt, cover, and reduce to a simmer. Cook until water is absorbed and rice is just tender, 16 to 18 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a blender, combine cilantro, lime juice, oil, garlic, and remaining water. Blend until smooth. Stir into cooked rice and fluff with a fork.

Very good! A nice change from plain rice. Add additional salt if needed after the cilantro mixture is added.
