A White Russian is a basic cocktail made with vodka, espresso liqueur, and cream. It’s a fashionable after-dinner drink and is commonly served in a calming glass.
The White Russian is believed to have originated within the Forties on the Lodge Metropole in Moscow. It was initially known as the “Black Russian,” however the title was modified to “White Russian” within the Sixties to make it extra interesting to Western audiences. The White Russian turned fashionable in the USA within the Nineteen Seventies, thanks partially to its look within the movie “The Massive Lebowski.”
