Black Russian
A sweet and coffee spirit-forward built around vodka, with the classic proportions and service that make the Black Russian endure.
“Look at this Black Russian—clean hit, no replay needed, and nobody had to miss the game.”
WHY THIS DRINK WORKS
The Black Russian works because vodka, coffee liqueur meet in deliberate proportion. Keep the method built, use fresh ice, and give the final garnish enough attention to finish the aroma without distracting from the drink.
