Da nun na nahhhh!!!….. It’s ski season!!!!!🎿🏂 Are you as excited as I am?!  Ok, but what does ski season reallyyyy mean? It means aprés ski….aka winter drinking! 🍻 Cause let’s be real, we all know by now that I wouldn’t be skiing without the reward of a nice beer or cocktail post mountain run. One of my go-to wintery cocktails to enjoy aprés ski is… the White Russian.

So in the spirit of hitting the slopes next weekend, for this Sippin’ Sunday I bring you the improved White Russian. 👌
