👩‍🍳 Directions (Step-by-Step)

Step 1: Brew and Chill the Coffee

Brew a strong cup of coffee and let it cool completely. For best results, use cold brew — it gives a smoother, less acidic flavor.

Step 2: Sweeten the Coffee

Mix sugar or simple syrup into the cold coffee until dissolved. Adjust sweetness to your liking.

Step 3: Prepare the Cream Layer

In a small bowl, whisk together:

• Heavy cream
• Sweetened condensed milk
• Vanilla extract

Mix until smooth and slightly thickened.
For extra creaminess, whisk for 10 seconds or use a frother.

Step 4: Fill Your Glass with Ice

Add plenty of ice cubes to your serving glass.
A full glass helps maintain the clean layered look.

Step 5: Pour the Coffee Base

Add the sweetened cold coffee and milk over the ice.

Step 6: Add the Cream Layer Slowly

Gently pour the cream over the back of a spoon to help it float on top.
This creates the iconic layered White Russian look.

Step 7: Garnish

Top with cocoa powder, chocolate flakes, or a single coffee bean.

Step 8: Serve

Enjoy it layered or stir lightly for a fully blended creamy drink.
