What is a White Russian
Outside of being one of the main characters of one of my favorite cult movies – White Russian Cocktails are insanely delicious, creamy, almost dessert like drinks.
They are milky – but not thick – and taste almost like a cookies and creme milkshake.
White Russians are perfect to sip for dessert or at a party!
Much like Moscow Mules, White Russians didn’t originate anywhere near Russia – they are from a cocktail bar in Los Angeles! Since they include vodka, they took on their Russian moniker – and have taken over ever since!

Recipe FAQs
If you need a reliable non-dairy alternative to cream, use coconut milk at a 1:1 ratio. Bailey’s has a delicious almond milk version you can use, too!
If you don’t have cream you can use milk or half and half – but not low-fat milk or milk substitute – or the drink will curdle.
