Description:
The White Russian grew out of the Black Russian with the addition of cream. The cocktail became especially recognizable through The Big Lebowski, where it appears repeatedly as the main character's favorite drink. In flavor, it is a soft coffee-and-cream cocktail with real strength but without a sharp alcoholic edge. It shows how one added ingredient can completely change the feel of a simple drink.
