Vodka’s ingredients stem from any number of plants, so long as they are rich in starch and sugar. Most vodka today is produced using grains such as corn, rye or wheat, although traditional favourites include vodka made from potatoes and corn. The ingredients are distilled or vapourized at very high temperatures in stills, which serves to separate the alcohol from water and other components in the liquid. This helps highlight the vodka’s taste and boost the alcohol content.
