You head to the homeland of vodka and it is part of local people's soul to drink it. The classical Russian style of drinking vodka does not include any cocktails (actually the only vodka cocktail accepted in Russia and Ukraine is vodka with beer) or stiring the content of your glass. It takes only a short moment to down the big shot of vodka. Afterwards you have to eat zakuski, small typical appetizers like smoked fish, pickled vegetables, meats, salads with sour cream. The king of zakuski are blinis (Russian style crepes) with caviar.
