Fill a rocks glass with ice. Add the vodka and Kahlua to the glass. Add the cream in slowly, pouring over the back of a spoon. Stir using a straw before drinking, if desired.
The White Russian is a classic pop-culture cocktail. It's enjoyed by fans of the cult classic, The Big Lebowski. While the movie didn't create the cocktail, it certainly made it popular again.
There's a lot of debate over the proper ratio of Vodka:Kahlua:Cream. My recipe is 3:2:2, but feel free to experiment with making it boozier or sweeter to better suit your palate.
