White Russian Cocktail
The White Russian is a delicious classic dessert cocktail made with vodka, coffee liqueur, and heavy cream.
Servings: 1
Ingredients
- 2 ounces vodka or vanilla vodka for a twist
- 1 ounce coffee liqueur such as Kahlúa
- 1 ounce heavy cream
Instructions
- Add vodka and coffee liqueur to a chilled old-fashioned glass filled with ice.
- Top with heavy cream and stir.
Notes
the secret to this recipe lies in the use of heavy cream, which has a higher fat content than whipping cream or half and half. I recommend you choose your dairy in that order, using half and half in desperation mode only.
Serve this cocktail over ice, preferably a single large ice cube.
The White Russian is a built cocktail, meaning it is assembled right in the glass it's served in (double Old-Fashioned glass).
Chill your glasses ahead of time in the freezer. This keeps your drink chilled for longer and reduces dilution.
