What a Godsend!! It's National Taco Day AND National Vodka Day!!!! The best of two worlds in one. Since they fall on Friday this year I vote we turn it into Taco/Vodka weekend. However, you may need a designated taco filler. The old coordination begins to falter after 2-3 vodkas. Or is that the tacos? In case you are new to the taco scene (did you grow up under a rock?) then here's a quick and yummy recipe:

Chopped Onion 

Ground Beef (90%) 

Tomato Sauce  

Taco Seasoning  

 

Here is a recipe for homemade taco seasoning:

• chili powder

• garlic powder

• onion powder

• dried oregano

• paprika

• ground cumin

• crushed red pepper (optional)

• salt and pepper

• sugar (optional)

• cornstarch

 Place all ingredients in a bowl and mix well.

Put an ample amount of meat mixture in a corn hard shell taco or a soft flour tortilla. If you want to spice it up use a little salsa. Pace is the best IMHO.  

And now for the good stuff-------VODKA.

The 20 Best Selling Vodka Brands In The World in 2019

• Smirnoff.
• Absolut.
• Khortytsa.
• Żubrówka.
• Khlibnyi Dar.
• Nemiroff.
• Svedka.
• Pyat Ozer.

I prefer Absolute but the truth is after a couple drinks they all do the same thing.

Rather than list the various drinks you can make with vodka here's a link that tells you how to make them and the ingredients for each cocktail:
