Vodka (nonfiction)

From Gnomon Chronicles

Vodka is a clear distilled alcoholic beverage. Its varieties originated in Poland and Russia.[1] Vodka is composed mainly of water and ethanol (alcohol), sometimes with traces of impurities and flavourings. Traditionally it is made by distilling liquid from fermented cereal grains and potatoes since the latter was introduced in Europe in the 18th century. Some modern brands use maize, sugar cane, fruit, honey, or maple sap as the base.
