Jeffery "The Dude" Lebowski's sipping drink of choice, the White Russian (also reffered to as a caucasian) has gained a huge cult following since the release of The Big Lebowski in 1998; a wise choice for all-day drinking.

Normally served in an old fashioned glass with ice cubes, you will need:

  • Two measures of Vodka
  • One measure of Kahlua (you can use other coffee liqueurs like Tia Maria, but I find Kahlua is the best tasting)
  • Fill the rest of the glass up with cream (or indeed milk) and you have a White Russian.

White-russian

Despite it's delicious taste, White Russians are highly alcoholic. Remember this; the caucasian is a sipping beverage.

Shake your White Russian using a mixing tin and watch it transform it into a Dirty Bird. Replace the milk with Coca Cola and you have a Dirty Black Russian. If you are feeling particularly tropical, try replacing the Vodka with White Rum and you've got yourself a White Cuban. 

Maravilloso!
