White Russian cocktail

[purple monk]

How do you make a white russian cocktail (or a caucasian as it is sometimes called)?

[tashjammatt]

white russian is made with bacardi tia maria and lemonade black russian is vodka tia maria and coke

[snotmonkey]

a white russian is 1 and a half part vodka, 1 part kahlua mixed with ice and filled with milk

Traditionally it uses Kaluha (sp?) and not tia maria - snotmonkeys version is the correct one but there are so many different variations about on cocktails nowadays. A white russian without the vodka (just Kaluha and Milk) is called a Brown Cow and is my fave - just incase you wondered!

Yes, snotmonkey's right. Vodka, Kahlua, and milk over ice. You can substitute Tia Maria for the Kahlua if you have trouble finding it, there's not a great deal of difference. Just ask "The dude". - Catkingirl - i've never tried it without the vodka... brown cow you say? I'll have to give that a go!

...by the way, did you know if you throw a measure of Baileys into that equasion, it's called a Mudslide? - Mmmm, nice. Thats Vodka, Kahlua, Baileys, and milk over roughly crushed ice.
