Ingredients
Ingredients:
- 2 oz vodka – The base spirit that gives the drink its smoothness and a touch of warmth.
- 1 oz coffee liqueur – Adds a rich, coffee flavor and a bit of sweetness.
- 1 oz chocolate syrup – For the decadent mocha flavor that enhances the drink’s depth and sweetness.
- 2 oz heavy cream – Provides the creaminess that balances the bold flavors and gives the drink its smooth texture.
- Ice cubes – Essential for chilling the drink and giving it a refreshing texture.
- Optional garnish: Grated chocolate or cocoa powder – For a touch of extra flavor and decoration that elevates the presentation.
Instructions
Preparation:
Step 1: Fill a rocks glass or lowball glass with ice cubes to chill your drink and give it that refreshing texture.
Step 2: In a cocktail shaker, combine the vodka, coffee liqueur, and chocolate syrup.
Step 3: Add the heavy cream to the shaker. You can adjust the amount of cream depending on how creamy or rich you want the drink to be.
Step 4: Shake well until the mixture is thoroughly combined and chilled. The shaking will also help create a bit of froth in the cream, which adds to the drink’s smooth texture.
Step 5: Strain the mixture into your prepared glass over the ice.
Step 6: Garnish the drink with a sprinkle of grated chocolate or cocoa powder for an extra touch of flavor and visual appeal. Serve immediately and enjoy the indulgence!
Notes
For the best Mocha White Russian, use high-quality coffee liqueur and chocolate syrup, as these ingredients play a key role in delivering the rich mocha flavor. If you don’t have a cocktail shaker, you can mix the ingredients directly in the glass, stirring them until well combined. Keep in mind that the cream should be added last to maintain its smooth and frothy texture. To prevent the cream from curdling, make sure your vodka and coffee liqueur are at room temperature before combining them. For an extra creamy texture, try using heavy whipping cream, which has a higher fat content than regular cream, resulting in a thicker and richer drink.
