Category: Beverages
Servings: 4
Preparation Time: 5 minutes
Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients:
| Ingredient | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Vodka | 200 ml |
| Coffee Liqueur | 80 ml |
| Fresh Cream | 80 g |
| Ice Cubes | As needed |
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Glass: Begin by filling a low tumbler glass with 2-3 ice cubes, or about three-quarters of the glass. This will help keep your White Russian chilled and refreshing.
-
Pour the Vodka: Add 5 cl (50 ml) of smooth vodka to the glass over the ice. The vodka forms the base of this creamy cocktail.
-
Mix the Ingredients: Using a small spoon, gently stir the vodka and ice together, ensuring that they are well combined.
-
Shake the Cocktail: Close the glass with a smaller shaker cap, and shake the mixture for a few seconds to help aerate the drink, creating a slightly frothy texture.
-
Serve: After shaking, gently tap the shaker to release the top, then place a strainer on the shaker and strain the liquid back into the tumbler.
-
Add the Cream: Slowly pour the fresh cream over the back of a spoon into the glass to create a layered effect. The cream should float on top of the vodka and coffee liqueur mixture.
-
Final Touches: Give the drink a quick stir before serving to combine the cream with the other ingredients, or leave it layered for a more visual effect.
Tips:
- For an extra creamy White Russian, use heavy cream instead of fresh cream.
- If you prefer a sweeter drink, feel free to adjust the amount of coffee liqueur to suit your taste.
Enjoy your White Russian – a rich, smooth cocktail perfect for relaxing moments!
