Recipe Variations

• If you want to cut down the calories, use milk instead or make it the Black Russian.
• Want to add more creaminess? Replace the half-and-half with the heavy cream instead. This will give it an additional creaminess and a fantastic swirl effect when you gently stir the drink with the spoon.
• Don't like a coffee taste? Use Baileys Irish Cream (the Original) instead of Kahlua.
