Frequently Asked Questions

What is a White Russian?

A traditional White Russian consists of vodka, coffee liqueur, and heavy cream, poured over ice in an old-fashioned glass.

Do I have to use heavy cream?

No, you do not, a healthier substitute is half and half, but you can use milk as an alternative as well.

What if I don’t like vodka?

In normal White Russian recipes, vodka is one of the main components, but if you are not a vodka fan you can swap it out with rum either light or dark. This will produce a sweeter flavor compared to vodka.
