Today we're making the White Russian! Actually we'll make it five times! This is a simple, three ingredient drink - vodka, coffee liqueur, and cream. The coffee liqueur leads the way in flavor, so you want to have the right one. We'll test this cocktail with five very different options ranging from sweat to bitter, and light to robust. Hope you all enjoy! Cheers!
