The Bar: Vodka

Vodka, in most Slavic languages, means 'water' (often spelled 'woda').  It is clear, odorless, but yet, it tastes better in a martini... Many claim frozen, Russian vodka is the best, but the further north you go, the better vodka actually is (many Russians will tell you Absolut is better than Stolichanaya)... those in Poland love their vodka, but straight up, and at room temperature.  Culinary enthusiasts will tell you that champange spoils the taste of caviar, and you should only serve it with frozen glasses of vodka.  Outside of Russian novels, Americans never really heard of vodka until after World War II.  Now it accounts for over 20% of all liquors in the United States.  While Russia and Poland both claim the invention of the ever popular vodka, we know that it came into existance sometime in the 14th century.
