Centuries ago Peter the Great, founder of St. Petersburg in Russia, had a favorite vodka that he slurped.
A couple of years ago some investors found the recipe for his vodka and, in celebration of the city's 300th anniversary, created the Czar's Gold brand using the original formula and water source (Lake Ladoga, outside St. Petersburg).
Czar's Gold is now one of the official vodkas of the Kremlin, and it's beginning to show up in American shops (about $35, czarsgold.com).
Try it chilled with a hottie named Olga.
