The traditional recipe never called for tequila. I think it just makes it taste bad and gives more alcohol punch, which for some is the whole point of the drink. I used to like the taste of them, when a visiting college friend and I went to the bar I would eventually work at and she suggested I try one.

A White Russian is Vodka, Kahlua, and cream. A Black Russian omits the cream.
Coke? I never heard of that in a Black Russian.
