Scrape down the sides and bottom of bowl with a rubber spatula and redistribute dough evenly around processor blade. Add remaining 1/2 cup of flour and pulse until mixture is evenly distributed around bowl and mass of dough has been broken up, 4-6 Quick pulses. Empty mixture into medium bowl.
2. Sprinkle vodka and water over mixture. With rubber spatula, use folding motion to mix, pressing down on dough until dough is slightly tacky and sticks together. Flatten down into 4 inch disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 45 minutes or up to two days.
