Before going vegan, I loved to drink White Russians, which has cream, so it isn't vegan.
So I decided to make a vegan version. This Vegan White Russian is sweet and rich.
It is a dessert in cocktail form. I also made a Vegan White Russian Ice Cream. It's a fun way to enjoy Kahlúa Midnight!
Another recipe to try is my Lemon Ginger Cocktail.

- It is sweet and rich, but not too sweet.
- It is vegan; it's made with coconut milk instead of heavy cream.
What is a White Russian?
A White Russian cocktail is usually made with cream, coffee liqueur, and vodka. Ever since going vegan sixteen years ago, I have been making them with coconut milk or soy creamer.
For this recipe, I used full-fat coconut milk, because it is so rich and creamy. You could also use light coconut milk, vegan creamer, or plant-based milk.
I have used the well-known original Kahlúa in the past, but I prefer Kahlúa Midnight. The original is 20% alcohol, and the Midnight is 35%.
The Midnight does not taste as sugary, which is one of the reasons I prefer it. It has a deep rich flavor.
🧾 Ingredients
- Vodka
- Coffee liqueur: I used Kahlúa Midnight Coffee Liqueur which isn't as sweet as the original, but you could also use the original Kahlúa. When I updated the ingredients photos I used regular Kahlua because I didn't want to buy a big bottle of liqueur.
- Coconut milk: I used full-fat coconut milk, but you could substitute light coconut milk, oat milk, almond milk, cashew milk, soy milk, or even vegan creamer.
