Soups

Ukha

The quintessential Russian fish soup — a clear, golden broth made from salmon bones and fillet with vegetables. The secret touch is a splash of vodka at the end, which enhances the fish aroma and makes the broth crystal clear.

Beverages

Espresso Martini

Vodka, coffee liqueur, and a shot of freshly pulled espresso shaken hard over ice until the outside of the tin frosts over. The foam on top — that pale, creamy layer that holds the coffee beans — comes from the CO₂ in the espresso crema getting trapped during shaking. You can't fake it with instant coffee. The drink was invented in a London bar in the 1980s by Dick Bradsell for a model who asked for something to wake her up and mess her up at the same time.

Penne alla Vodka

Penne in a creamy tomato sauce with pancetta, vodka, and a hit of chilli. The sauce is the color of a sunset — somewhere between deep red and pale pink — and the texture is what happens when heavy cream meets a reduced tomato base: thick, glossy, and rich enough that the pasta takes on its own weight. Penne alla vodka became a cult dish in Italy in the 1980s and hit American restaurant menus shortly after. Its origins are genuinely disputed between Rome, Bologna, and New York. What nobody disputes is that it works: the vodka doesn't add alcohol flavor (it mostly cooks off) but it unlocks aroma compounds in the tomato that neither water nor oil can dissolve, making the sauce smell and taste more intensely of tomato than a standard tomato cream sauce.
