White Russian Cocktail

The White Russian is decadent and sophisticated. Combining Vodka, Kahlúa and cream and serving it on the rocks creates a delicious alternative to adult milkshakes.

 

The White Russian came about in the 1960s when someone added a bit of cream to the Black Russian. It would be a great story to say that the White Russian’s star rose from that point on, but unfortunately, that would not be true.

 

The truth is the White Russian suffered a bit from a stodgy, antiquated reputation until the 1998 movie “The Big Lebowski” came along and breathed new life into the cocktail with Jeff Bridge’s character, The Dude, sipping it exclusively.

 

Ingredients:

Vodka – 3 oz

Kahlúa – 1 oz

Heavy Cream – 1 Splash

 

Method:

Add the Vodka and Kahlúa to an Old Fashioned glass with ice.

Top with the heavy cream and stir.
