    About

    The White Russian is a simple yet decadent cocktail that blends the smoothness of vodka with the rich, coffee-like flavor of Kahlúa, finished with a splash of cream. This cocktail has become iconic due to its creamy texture and strong, flavorful kick. It's a popular choice for those looking for something both strong and indulgent, perfect for a cozy evening or as a nightcap. The White Russian gained further popularity after being featured in the cult classic film *The Big Lebowski*, where the main character, Jeffrey 'The Dude' Lebowski, was known for his love of the drink.
