Ingredients
Liquids
- 1 oz vodka
- 1 oz coffee liqueur (Kahlúa)
- 1 oz heavy cream or half-and-half
Add-ins
- 1 tbsp caramel sauce
- Ice
Instructions
- Fill Glass with Ice: Fill your serving glass completely with ice cubes to chill the cocktail and maintain its refreshing temperature.
- Add Vodka and Coffee Liqueur: Pour 1 oz of vodka and 1 oz of coffee liqueur over the ice, forming the base of your cocktail with balanced alcoholic flavors.
- Mix in Caramel Sauce: Stir in 1 tablespoon of caramel sauce until fully dissolved, infusing the drink with rich sweetness.
- Top With Cream: Slowly pour 1 oz of heavy cream or half-and-half over the back of a spoon or gently on top so it floats and creates a creamy layer.
- Serve Immediately: Present your Caramelized White Russian immediately for the best taste and texture. Optionally, garnish by swirling extra caramel sauce inside the glass for a decorative touch.
Notes
- Swirl the glass with extra caramel sauce before adding ice for an attractive presentation.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute heavy cream or half-and-half with coconut milk.
