Shake up your holiday cocktail routine with this festive chai spiced white russian! It’s the perfect excuse to enjoy Kahlua, and it’s a White Russian recipe you’ll be sure to use again all winter.
The only good thing about this cold weather is being able to use delicious spices like CHAI. Oh my goodness have I missed chai everything. It tastes like Christmas in a glass! I teamed up with Chicago Vodka and 11th Orchard Bitters to make this unbelievably delicious holiday drink. These are both amazing Chicago companies. 11th Orchard Bitters uses only hand selected, wild foraged Chicago ingredients in their bitters. They never use any artificial ingredients or preservatives. I can’t believe I haven’t been drinking this all along!

This sounds good! When you say cold cream, do you mean heavy cream or whipped cream? Thanks for the recipe.
Yes, heavy whipping cream. I’ll make that edit. Thanks!
