If you're handling a cockatrice corpse, watch out for pesky foocubi that might ease off your gloves.

Vodka is a clear, colorless, unaged liquor "made from ethyl alcohol from agricultural origin". It was originally made in Russia from potatoes, but today's vodka, which is almost odorless and tasteless, is usually made from grain, primarily barley and wheat, and occationally from rye.
Vodka is integral to many cocktails such as the Screwdriver, Bloody Mary and Vodka Martini. If served straight, it should always be icy-cold.
Flavored vodkas have become popular in the United States and may be flavored with anything from fruits to hot peppers. Some flavored vodkas are even sweetened slightly.

Gin is an unaged liquor made by distilling grains such as barley, corn or rye. Its bouquet comes from juniper berries, coriander, herbs and spices, usually added to the grain mash during distillation. The gin is stored in glass, earthenware or stainless steel containers, but does not mature in these. The storage time serves only to harmonize the product.
Someone once said that "A bar without gin is like an Italian kitchen without pasta". No other liquor provides for the creation of so many classic cocktails. Gin is in fact a liquor that is harmonious with almost anything.
Without gin the king of cocktails, the dry Martini, would not exist.

Mmm, Gin.

Coca-Cola is probably the best known cola beverage in the World. It was created in 1886 by an Atlanta pharmacist, John S. Pemberton (1831-88), at his Pemberton Chemical Company, originally based on cocaine from the coca leaf and caffeine-rich extracts of the cola nut.
Today, the coca and cola extracts have been removed, and artificial flavorings are used instead. Other ingredients are sugar (corn syrup are used in some parts of the world), caramel coloring, water and phosphoric or citric acid.
The Coca-Cola is used as a mixer in the bar, and several famous recipes use it as a main ingredient. Without it, drinks like the Long Island Iced Tea and Rum and Coke would not exist.
