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.

reviews & comments
I am literally making this recipe right now. I have been cooking this stuff for almost 2 HOURS! 30 minutes; yeah right! And I still have huge chunks of tomatoes. OK. I just said screw it. It's thicker than when I started and the tomatoes have reduced a lot. It filled up 5 1/2 pint mason jars. I am processing them now. I will hold off on rating this recipe until I try the processed jam.
