Black Russian - Only Two Ingredients
That's right, there are only two ingredients in this cocktail! All you need is vodka and coffee liqueur. I used my Homemade Coffee Liqueur and it was perfect. If you want to change it up a bit, though you don't need to, a White Russian includes cream.
To make this cocktail: Rocks Glasses, More Rocks Glasses, Swizzle Sticks.

I love the flavour of a Black Russian cocktail, Pam, but I bet it would be even nicer with your homemade coffee liqueur! Thank you so much for sharing this recipe, and for being a part of the Hearth and Soul Link Party. Scheduled to pin!

This looks cool, although I prefer non alcoholic drinks...

This looks like a delicious drink. I love that you also have the Homemade Coffee Liqueur recipe so I can make it almost all from scratch.

I have never had a black Russian. A white Russian, yes but I never thought to leave the cream out. Coffee liqueur is one of my favorite's so I know this will be great even without the cream!
