Advantages: Yummy!

Disadvantages: Too sweet so can't drink massive amounts

Hello all! It was 9.30pm last night and I’d been home from work for an hour, I sat at the PC with one of the most gorgeous drinks I’ve every had…. Kahlua.

What is Kahlua? Kahlua is produced in Mexico. It’s a rich, dark liqueur, made from the finest Mexican coffee, fine cane spirits and a hint of vanilla. It was produced before WWII but not introduced to America until 1962.

Kahlua is a coffee liqueur. It is a dark brown colour and it doesn’t smell too much of coffee which is good, I don’t like coffee, surprisingly! Kahlua has a brief bitter note followed by a very sweet flavour, almost chocolate like. I asked my other half to tell me what he thought it smelt like and he said it was like Christmas chocolates when you have a tin of Quality Street and only the rubbish ones are left!

The drink itself is 26.5% Vol. Not too strong (probably the only down side!) The bottle is brown with a yellow label and an ‘imported’ sticker on it. The picture on the front is a brown drawing of a quiet Mexican town with a man sitting on the floor, probably asleep (blindo more like!) with a sombrero on his head. On the back of the bottle are 5 recipes to try, I will include some recipes later, not ones from the bottle though, apart from my favourite! The bottle is 70cl and is sold in many places. I bought mine in the local Tesco’s for a bargain price of £12.99.

A lovely drink, couldn’t drink too much though as it is very sweet.
