White Russian Cocktail

Recipe Description

One of my favorite movies is The Big Lebowski and if you have seen that movie, you’ll know that the main character’s favorite drink is none other than a White Russian! It is a super decadent Christmas drink recipe to try this year.

I always serve White Russians in Old Fashioned glasses – short crystal tumblers. When I make these, I always choose a good quality vodka (it has to be a Russian one!) and heavy cream. Mix the vodka and Kahlúa, a Mexican coffee liqueur. Top with the heavy cream and stir well.

To make White Russian, you will need the following ingredients:

Decadent! The White Russian took me back to cozy movie nights with my wife. We recreated a scene from The Big Lebowski, sipping on these delicious drinks in our living room. The blend of vodka and creamy goodness is just perfect. Thanks for this fantastic recipe!
