I've liked Pepper Vodka since I first had it served from a bottle
encased in a block of ice. I don't mean things like Absolut Peppar which
is flavored with green sweet peppers, AFAICT but the real Russian stuff
using hot peppers.

You can make it yourself by steeping dried hot peppers in vodka. Filter
off the peppers after a few hours and keep the bottle in the freezer,
zdorov'ya!
