Brief History of the White Russian Cocktail
The White Russian's origins trace back to the mid-20th century. It first appeared in 1949, when Gustave Tops, a Belgian bartender, crafted it at the Hotel Metropole in Brussels. The drink gained mainstream popularity in the late 1990s, largely due to its feature in the cult classic film 'The Big Lebowski', where the protagonist, The Dude, favoured this indulgent cocktail. Its blend of vodka, coffee liqueur, and cream offers a lively contrast of flavours and an indulgent texture that continues to attract aficionados worldwide.
