Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ oz vodka
  • 1 oz coffee liqueur e.g., Kahlúa
  • 1 oz peanut butter syrup or peanut butter whiskey
  • 1 oz heavy cream or milk for a lighter option
  • Ice cubes
  • Crushed peanuts or chocolate shavings optional, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Chill a rocks glass by filling it with ice water while you prepare the drink.
  • For an optional touch, rim the glass with crushed peanuts or chocolate shavings for added flavor and presentation.
  • In a cocktail shaker, add vodka, coffee liqueur, and peanut butter syrup. Fill the shaker halfway with ice cubes.
  • Shake the mixture vigorously for 15–20 seconds until well chilled and slightly diluted. The shaker should feel icy to the touch.
  • Discard the ice water from the chilled glass and fill it with fresh ice cubes. Strain the shaken mixture over the ice.
  • Slowly pour the heavy cream over the back of a spoon to create a layered effect.
  • Alternatively, stir the cream into the drink for a fully blended cocktail.
  • Top with a sprinkle of crushed peanuts, chocolate shavings, or a drizzle of chocolate syrup for extra flair.
  • Enjoy your Peanut Butter White Russian immediately!
