The White Elephant. This drink is aptly named. We couldn't discuss it among ourselves without arguing. Otherwise, we'd have told you about it years ago. We agreed on the Smirnoff. We agreed on the crème de cacao. But was a White Elephant made with drink? About that, we couldn't agree. So, we tested the drink both ways. The milk version was hands down, "Delicious", tasters told us, "You hardly know you're drinking liquor." "That's why we oppose putting milk in the drink in the first place!" said the people who had opposed milk in the first place, "It goes down too easy." That's a problem we hadn't faced before. This drink has 2 oz. of liquor in it and if you don't notice it at first, you are sure to feel it later. So, hopefully you'll treat it (and yourself) with respect.
To make a White Elephant: Pour 1 oz. Smirnoff, 1 oz. white creme de cacao and 1 oz. milk into a short glass with ice. Stir. |
