minus-squarelime!@feddit.nulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12arrow-down1·1 day agovodka and milk is not a valid recipe for a white russian. idk what the hell the dude thinks he’s drinking but it’s definitely not that.

minus-squareprole@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·10 hours agoI’ve never seen someone drink half & half the way people drink milk. Like just a straight glass of half & half. It is used almost exclusively as a substitute for heavy cream in recipes, so my mind considers it cream.
minus-squarelime!@feddit.nulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·10 hours agobut is it milk or cream? is it like 5%?
minus-squareprole@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up4·edit-210 hours ago50/50. Half cream, half whole milk… But the few times I’ve tasted it on its own, it is much closer to cream imo

minus-squarePotatoLibre@feddit.itlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 day agoI don’t remeber what a White Russian should be made of from my bartender years, but if it was cream, well I stay with the Dude. At one point you’ve to prioritize your calories. Kahlua - necessary Vodka - necessary Cream??? > Milk
minus-squarelime!@feddit.nulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·14 hours agoindeed he doesn’t. either there’s sobe other scene i’m thinking of or i’m misremembering
minus-squareColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up3·1 day agoThe Dude is both chill, and poor. Not everyone has coffee liqueur and creamer money. He makes do with what’s around and he’s happy about it.
minus-squareSimulation6@sopuli.xyzcakelinkfedilinkarrow-up2·13 hours agoCoffee liqueur is super easy to make. Cheap vodka, super strong coffee and a vanilla bean. Let it sit for a month. You can add glycerin if you want to increase the viscosity, but not needed for white russians.
minus-squareColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.delinkfedilinkarrow-up1·5 hours agoObviously not something the Dude would do, but I might try this.
minus-squarePotatoLibre@feddit.itlinkfedilinkarrow-up2arrow-down1·1 day agoThat’s cause you’re young. When you get to the 50s you can’t use cream, bur you doesn’t stop to like white russian
minus-squarelime!@feddit.nulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·23 hours agoi think the kahlua is probably the most important thing there… otherwise it just tastes like milk.

50/50. Half cream, half whole milk… But the few times I’ve tasted it on its own, it is much closer to cream imo
