Pavel Chekov enjoying a glass of vodka
Vodka was an alcoholic beverage from Earth, originating in Russia. It was one of the ingredients used in making a Moscow Mule and a vodka martini. (DS9: "Badda-Bing, Badda-Bang", "Once More Unto the Breach")
In 2263 of the alternate reality, after Doctor Leonard McCoy "found" a bottle of Glenfiddich in Pavel Chekov's locker, both McCoy and Captain James T. Kirk admitted they had assumed Chekov was "a vodka guy." (Star Trek Beyond)
In the prime universe, vodka was Pavel Chekov's drink of choice. While drinking it aboard Deep Space Station K-7 in 2268, he was asked by Montgomery Scott when he was going to "get off that milk diet," adding that, in Scotland, vodka was referred to as "soda pop". (TOS: "The Trouble with Tribbles")
In reality, vodka and whisky are drinks of similar strength, both being typically 35–40% alcohol by volume.
