I have 19 years of experience at doing this.

Thanks for the tips,

I have been very good with not spoiling vodka by mixing or chasing with other drinks. I also only sip. However when I have no access to continually frozen vodka, I tend to use ice. Warm vodka has to be a Russian sin?

The pickles and cold cuts sound delicious, I also read about pickled herring being a great complement as well.
