Here’s a cocktail recipe to try this weekend

Happy Thursday! Going into the weekend I’m sharing a special cocktail recipe with you, it’s a sweet and spicy (also non-dairy) twist on the classic White Russian cocktail. This is a delicious cocktail to try this weekend either with friends, for a date night or let me be honest with you, for myself after a long week at work!

I’ve always been a fan of the classic White Russian with cream, but as of about three months ago I’ve cut out all dairy from my diet. So this recipe is a perfect alternative, with a little unexpected twist. Chai! I chose to add Chai to this drink for its sweet and spicy flavor, I personally love everything spicy. All together I think these ingredients really make for an all-around fabulous, boozy, alternative cocktail to the original.
