Everything about this is fucking amazing.
- The fact that this guy's name is technically Dick Tack
- The fact that he describes himself as a Polymath and Anti-Communist
- That he has 21.8 THOUSAND posts on Quora
- The fact that he does not answer the asked question at all, but that he instead launches into an insane Boomer rant about how he and his friends would be judgemental against anybody who orders an alcoholic drink with milk in it because it is "girly"
- That, despite referring to himself as a "Polymath", he supposedly had to Google what "liquor" meant
And of course he's British, only an Anglo could act like this and think it makes him look cool.
Really? Back when me and my friends had our white russian phase, we always just stirred vodka, milk and kaluah and never had any issues with curdling. is this less of a problem with low-fat, homogenized milk? because we always used that afair
I was taught to pour the milk/cream in over the back of a spoon but I really have no idea why
I think thats just for aesthetics, the cream lands more softly on top of the drink and slowly mixes down in a nice looking pattern compared to pouring it right in and having it displace the stuff thats already in.
Theres other "layered" cocktails that do that with different colored liquors for an aesthetic effect and I guess to some extent so it mixes as you drink and it changes flavor throughout.
I think it's bc normally it calls for cream or half and half. I've definitely curdled the heavy cream by doing it before the vodka (like if you were trying to do standard cocktail ingredients order of cheapest to most expensive)
It's "Kahlúa", a Nahuatl word. If you can spell the white Euro drink right you can take the time to learn that one 🙂
