That means you could be having lots of extra calories ‘passively’, or without thinking about it, which can lead to weight gain. 5 Vodka can be distilled from various sources such as grains, potatoes, fruits and sugar beet molasses. As a general rule of thumb; the more flavorful ingredients used in production can often lead to better quality liquids but this isn’t always true.
