As new brands of vodka keep emerging every month, good times are never going to be over for vodka lovers. According to latest consumer reports, US alone witnessed the birth of more than 200 brands of vodkas in the last 5 years; just imagine the figure in other countries. Vodka is one of the most prevailing spirits in the world, it is made by fermenting and distilling simple sugars from mashes of pale vegetable matter and grain. Vodka can also be produced from grains, potatoes, beets, molasses and various other plants. The two basic ingredients for making vodka are rye and wheat, hence potent Russian vodkas are made from wheat while the Polish ones are made from rye mash. Russian vodkas don't use potatoes, but Polish vodkas do have potatoes as an important ingredient. A clear and almost flavorless spirit, vodka originated from the Russian word Voda (water). It was first discovered in Poland in the early 14th century and is known as the national drink of Russia by many. Europeans and Russians prefer their vodka with dinner or caviar, and some of them also like to drink it straight up.
