What is a White Russian

A White Russian is a classic cocktail made with vodka, coffee liqueur (such as Kahlúa), and cream. The combination of these ingredients creates a rich and slightly sweet drink with a smooth and velvety texture. The name “White Russian” is believed to have originated from the use of vodka as the primary ingredient, which is associated with Russia.

How To Make a Pumpkin White Russian

Fill a rocks glass with ice cubes and pour the vodka and coffee liqueur over the ice. Gently stir the mixture. Float the cream on top by pouring it over the back of a spoon or by drizzling it slowly over the drink.
