White Russian
Vodka-Kahlúa-cream drink
White Russian names a cocktail of vodka, coffee liqueur, and cream, served over ice.
The drink gained cultural prominence from the film *The Big Lebowski*, whose protagonist drinks them throughout.
Separately, White Russian refers to a person from Belarus or, historically, to anti-Bolshevik forces during the Russian Civil War. (Lowercase white russian typically means the cocktail.)
