I typically like to post more creative and fun cocktails but figured that there was value in genuinely focusing on some of the tried and true classics such as a good ole White Russian!

One of the dependable things about this cocktail is that it requires ZERO prep work ZERO shaking or muddling and comes together with THREE simple ingredients.

White Russian Ingredients:

One of the things that A regular here about this cocktail is that it’s only THREE truly simple ingredients:

1. Vodka
2. Kahlua
3. Cream (see note below for some dairy free options)

How to make a VEGAN White Russian:

I know that a lot of you are going to be curious how I’ve made this cocktail vegan. Traditionally, a white Russian is made with heavy creamy or half and half.

My suggestion for make this dairy free is to simply use a vegan heavy cream or plain creamer. I’ve tried this once with a can of coconut cream and it turned out nice but did have a quite distinct coconut flavor.

You could also use almond or oat milk etc but those are significantly thinner and won’t have quite the same creaminess of a long-used White Russian.
