    I've been drinking this for years. It's simply the best, better if you use whipped vodka. Whole milk instead of cream.

    By adding skim milk it is now an Anna Kournikova...A skinny white russian.

    I like to mix this in 1 gallon milk jugs and just keep it in my fridge so it is allways ready to go! In winter I fill my glass up with snow and then pour in the white russian! Soooo Good!
