Vodka vs Champagne


Bloomberg reports that a high-end NY restaurant now offers the all time favorite drink-and-chaser of Russian alcoholics.
... he serves a Caviar Martini made with a cube of pressed caviar in a glass of very, very cold Russian vodka with cucumber. “Men first order it and when the women taste it, they order one too.”
Of course, the good old treat - водка с огурцом - now has a new fancy name Caviar Martini. Folk drinks seem to follow the path of folk songs into the highest levels of society.

На здоровье!
