2. WHAT IS VODKA..??
■ Vodka is a distilled beverage composed primarily of water and ethanol,
sometimes with traces of impurities and flavorings. Traditionally, vodka is made
by the distillation of fermented cereal grains or potatoes, though some modern
brands use other substances, such as fruits or sugar.
■ Since the 1890s, the standard Polish, Russian, Ukrainian, Estonian, Latvian,
Lithuanian and Czech vodkas are 40% alcohol by volume ABV (80 proof), a
percentage that is widely misattributed to Dmitri Mendeleev. The European
Union has established a minimum of 37.5% ABV for any "European vodka" to be
named as such. Products sold as "vodka" in the United States must have a
minimum alcohol content of 40%.
