The Moscow Times celebrates the annual Russian Vodka Day by sharing a number of innovative cocktails and food recipes that are meant to be enjoyed with them.
A few standout recipes that The Moscow Times shares are ginger and tarragon-Infused vodkas, and vodka-based liqueurs that have powerful notes of cranberry and rosemary. All of the infused vodkas can easily be made at home, by simply combining the properly measured ingredients and letting them soak into the versatile liquor.
The perfect pairings for the infused vodkas are meat and fish dishes, such as the 'Marinated Brynza with Thyme,' the 'Mushroom Julienne,' and 'The Pickle Platter.' All of the dishes are meant to serve a group of people, making the pairings ideal treats to whip up for guests.
