Step-by-Step Instructions for Cherry White Russian
  1. Begin by filling a faceted old-fashioned glass with large, clear ice cubes until it's about three-quarters full.
  2. Pour 1.5 oz of vodka, followed by 1 oz of coffee liqueur, and then 1 oz of cherry syrup directly over the ice.
  3. Gently pour 1 oz of heavy cream over the back of a spoon, allowing it to cascade slowly into the cocktail.
  4. If desired, finish your Cherry White Russian with a few maraschino cherries on top for a touch of elegance.
