Ok so after reading a book that involved the russian civil war, i remembered how much I love "white russians" (the cocktail).
So I always wondered, why no one has invented a Red Russian, or some Drink called "the Communist" or something like that. So, I decided to invent such a drink based loosely on the white russian. I did some research and found out that Stolichnaya makes a strawberry vodka. Mix that with strawberry milk, and I already like the idea of where this is going to go. I doubt, however, that kahlua would be a good addition, like the white russian, to this strawberry based drink, but I could be wrong, I'm just scared to see what hideous color it is going to turn when I add kahlua to a redish drink. Anyways, anyone have any suggestions as to what I should try replacing the Kahlua with, prefereably something inexpensive, easily acessable, and preferably not a liqueur. Something around 40 proofish.
