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.

Collard greens with plenty of hot sauce, just how they like it in the South. These tasty greens flavored with bacon drippings, brown sugar, and smoked turkey would be a welcome side dish on any plate.

Never cooked collards myself before. This was a little spicy for me but we liked it. Added a little more brown sugar when I tasted it and saw it was spicy.

Best collard greens I've ever had! I used bagged, prewashed and cut greens, and six slices of bacon, cooked and chopped instead of the turkey wing. I also used butter. It was wonderful, but only took about half the cooking time in my crock pot. Enjoy!!
