The Black Russian was created in the 1940’s by Gustave Tops at the Hotel Metropole in Brussels, Belgium. It was supposedly created for American Ambassador Perle Mesta. It gets its name because the drink is a dark color, and Vodka is normally associated with Russia. This is a predecessor to the more famous White Russian. This is an Official IBA Cocktail.
