With or without Cola?

Without.

Throughout Australasia, much of the UK and parts of Europe, many customers expect the cola variation when ordering a "Black Russian". While this is technically not the true original, depending on location and circumstances, a bartender should know when to check what is expected. Ordering a "Short Black Russian" vs a "Tall Black Russian" may help eliminate any confusion.

In Ireland, apparently the standard is a Tall Black Russian with a Guiness head
