Ingredients

2 cl vodka, preferably Finnish
2 cl liqueur (Kahlua)
4 cl milk or cream

Instructions

The original recipe actually looks like this: 2cl vodka, 2cl Kahlua and 2cl cream, so 2: 2: 2, but this White Russian is very strong.
Instead of cream, it has proven useful to take milk and dilute it with it until you like the white Russian, the best result for me is 2: 2: 4 (with milk)
Big Lebowski drinks it 4: 2: 3 (cream).
You can mix the White Russian as you like, depending on which flavor you prefer, more vodka, more coffee flavor (more Kahlua) or a little creamier (more cream).
You can shake the white Russian, or just mix it well with a spoon, so it turns light brown depending on the cream / milk content.
Another variant is to mix vodka and kahlua and pour the cream over the back of a spoon, so it is two-colored.
A must for every Big Lebowski fan!
