Vodka was made for so much more than mules and martinis. It may surprise you to learn that the spirit was actually invented as a source of medicine (something Princess Margaret was perhaps privy to, given her decadent morning routine) and to this day, the colorless, odorless drink has a number of health benefits. So the next time you're debating what kind of cocktail to order, consider this:

Not the way I drink it!
Grey Goose is good and I haven’t tried Crystal Head. I suppose I’ll have to next time I go to the liquor store. I like Tito’s too.
Yup! And when it metabolizes, it creates an awful stench in alcoholics. It comes right out of the pores.
Vodka miraculously improves my singing and dancing.
Skyy Pineapple vodka with seltzer is just downright good for the soul. 🍍🍹
I had a friend who was a social worker. He had one hard core client that told him he only drank white wine so he could tell if he was bleeding when he threw up.
Not so sure that he cared about the time of day.
I remember at AA meetings they’d talk about storing vodka in the freezer.
Come to think about it, my ex-wife used to do that.
Can someone tell me the reason?
Frozen Vodka goes down like water.
My father told me years ago all the really ‘fun’ stuff was bad for you, he was right.
Potatoes are truly a miracle food.
Vodak
Baked Potato
Tater Tots
Spicy Curly Fries
Hash Browns
Fried Potatoes
Curly Fries
Waffle Fries
French Fries
My personal hierarchy of potatoes. What’s yours?
Actually, I have 4 cases of the handles in my closet. Gotta use something to disinfect wounds, and barter for. Reminds me, I need to buy another case. Only been stocking up for about 6 months. Heck I don’t think Vodak ever goes ‘bad’, either. Just buy a case of the cheapest you can, and you’ll be surprised what you can get trade for some of it when the SHTF.
Crystal Head is literally in a glass skull, and I believe either was founded by, or owned by, Dan Aykroyd.
My mom did that with all the hard liquor, because if I drank some, and ‘watered it down’, the water would freeze while the alcohol wouldn’t, and I’d be busted.
Fortunately, that was the late 70’s early 80’s, and with the parenting I had, I didn’t have to hide it, I could just ask if I can have 1 drink before bed.
I believe it helps with digestion, too.
“Vodka miraculously improves my singing and dancing.”
LOL! It sure helped this Baptist preacher’s kid to get on a dance floor the first time at 25 years old.
I’m sold!
Makes me want to make a drink now.

It has also been rumored that some brands can even be used in place of "Turtle Wax", (although they may not all be completely environmentally friendly)!

Guess I could try that. :). Pretty sure that’s what got me into trouble before, but I value FReeper input, soooo...I’ll give that approach a shot.
Vodka is my choice. I get whatever else I need when they dress the drink. Limes, olives, celery. 😂. I was sitting at the bar in a casino recently and ordered a shot of vodka with a soda back. Bartender says....what kind of vodka do you like? Hmmmmm..... vodka. Lol
