Colorado Bulldog

This colorado bulldog features coffee-flavored liquor and fizzy soda. This classic cocktail is easy to make and drink!

Looking for a delicious cocktail that is easy to make and tastes amazing? This Colorado Bulldog recipe is a coffee-flavored drink that is served over ice.

The taste is similar to a White Russian because they both contain vodka, coffee liqueur, and cream. However, the Bulldog has a lovely fizz that comes from soda.

It is easy to make, always a crowd pleased.

Why This Cocktail Rocks

1. Common Ingredients: The ingredients are easy to find at your local liquor store, or likely already in your liquor cabinet.
2. Classic Flavors: Creamy coffee and soda are well-liked, and always a hit.
3. Easy To Make: These are a breeze to make with no cocktail shaker required. You can enjoy your party while still whipping up a signature cocktail.

Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips

1. Vodka: Vodka isn’t the star here, you can use your favorite brand. It doesn’t have to be a top-shelf variety, even a cheap bottle will work fine. I used Pinnacle. You could even mix it up by using flavored vodkas such as whipped cream, chocolate, or even birthday cake.
2.  Kahlua: Kahlua is a sweet rum-based coffee liquor. It is wonderful in this drink and on its own. You can use storebought or homemade. Have leftover Kahlua, make our Mudslide drink too!
3. Cream: I like using heavy cream, but you could use half and half too.
4. Soda: Coke is a  classic for this drink. However, if you don’t have it on hand you could use Pepsi, root beer, or even Dr. Pepper.

How to Make a Colorado Bulldog Cocktail

1. Fill glass with ice. Pour in vodka and Kahlua.
2. Top off with heavy cream, and Coca-Cola.

Tips and Tricks

1. Pour the pop into the glass slowly as it can create a lot of foam.
2. This drink can also be shaken in a cocktail shaker or a mason jar if you’d prefer.
3. Make a non-alcoholic version by using espresso (or strong coffee), cream, and cola.
4. This drink has 2 servings of alcohol, making it equal to around 2 standard drinks. Always enjoy responsibly.
5. Leave out the Coca-Cola to make a White Russian instead.
