Top 5 Vodka DrinksVodka is a fairly neutral tasting alcohol, something that many drinkers find ideal when making cocktails. The alcohol also has a relatively low amount of congeners, the toxic chemicals in alcohol which cause hangovers. These two factors make vodka one of the top drinks of choice on big drinking nights.
The neutral flavor of the alcohol has also prompted the popularity of flavored alcohols. With vodka's ability to take on infused flavors, bottles are available in a range of varieties, with everything from raspberry to marshmallow filling store shelves.
With that in mind, we've compiled the five most popular vodka cocktails and their recipes. Have another favorite vodka cocktail that we left out? Be sure to put it in the comments below! Photo courtesy necopunch via Flickr/CC

What is the cocktail shown above in the intro? It looks good, but it isn't named or even included in the top 5 list? Can anyone identify it?
