Back in the days of my youth, when I was hitting the bar scene, my way to ease into the evening was first a Kahlua and cream because it tasted like chocolate milk. Then I became brave enough to add some vodka and I had chocolate milk with a kick. By the end of the evening, the cream was an afterthought and it was just coffee flavored booze. Those were the days and I'm glad that I lived through them.
Nowadays, on a rare occasion, I go back in time and try a white Russian. Recently, I discovered a bottle of vanilla vodka that I'd bought for a special recipe for Mardi Gras (last year). Not one to waste, I tried making a black Russian with the vanilla vodka. I was pleased to find that this was a nice smooth mix. The vanilla in the vodka gives it a nice, extra flavor. Definitely worth a shot.
