There’s something about a White Russian that brings me back to my college years. Somewhere in between shots of Jager and Tequila Sunrises that my buddy Felipe made for me, the White Russian holds a special place in my heart. And every so often at a bar I’ll see someone order one and then I get nostalgic and wax poetic about life in the gool ol’ days when my jeans were covered in charcoal from my drawing class and the soundtrack to Henry & June was in my cd player while I smoked and wrote and lived my artist’s life.
Ah, White Russian.
1 1/2 oz vodka
3/4 oz Kahlua
3/4 oz cream
Pour the vodka and Kahlua into an old-fashioned glass filled with ice.
Stir.
Gently top with the cream.
