It’s one of those drinks you just never think to order, but when you do you indulge and enjoy because it’s just THAT good. It’s a simple cocktail really, but for any coffee lover, it’s sort of the greatest treat ever. I love a good cocktail that works as double duty for a morning beverage too (don’t judge!). I decided to spice this classic white russian recipe up a bit and add vanilla vodka instead of just plain old vodka. Also, I garnished it with a little cinnamon and cinnamon stick. It adds a warmth to it that helps make you feel just that much more cozy while drinking it. You’ll want to snuggle up on the couch with a warm blanket with this cold winter weather and enjoy.
