I can't find any mention of a coffee based alcoholic drink in the Soviet cookbook except where it says that coffee liqueur is best to drink with cream ("рекомендуется пить со сливками"). I don't see a recipe. Also note that according to my dictionary "liquor" and "liqueur" both translate as "ликер"; "liquor" is obviously wrong so I'll change that.

There is no evidence in this article that the drink has any connection to Russia or to the Russian language. It even says in the History section, "Neither drink has any known Russian origin." And there is no evidence that its name in Russian is anything other than "white russian". Without a source, it's not appropriate to add a Russian language name to the first sentence of the article (or anywhere else). GA-RT-22 (talk) 18:39, 16 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
