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.

ingredients
2 cups chocolate graham cracker crumbs
5 tablespoons margarine, melted
2 pints fresh strawberries
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon creme de menthe (optional)
1 cup whipping cream
3 tablespoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
directions
Combine crumbs and butter in a small bowl. Press firmly on bottom and up side of a 9" pie plate. Refrigerate until firm.
Reserving 3 strawberries for garnish, cut off stem ends of remaining berries so they are no more than" tall. Arrange, cut ends down, on crust, refrigerate. Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk; beat well. Add lime juice and optional liqueur; blend well.
Pour into prepared crust, covering strawberries. Refrigerate overnight (it will taste great). Whip cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar and vanilla and whip until stiff and glossy.
Using a pastry bag with a decorating tip, pipe a lattice design on top of the pie. Garnish with the reserved strawberries and lime slice.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.
