Kahlua Day

27 February

The 27th of February is Kahlua Day.

It celebrates the creamy, rum-based liqueur from Mexico with the coffee flavour and a caffeine hit.

A little Kahlua goes a long way, so it can be an ideal ingredient to use in many things:

  • have some drizzled on ice cream or yoghurt;
  • have some drizzled on cheesecake or other cake;
  • pour a shot into a coffee or a hot chocolate;
  • have a cocktail made with Kahlua;
  • or just sip a shot on its own, perhaps on the rocks.

History

The earliest mention that CooksInfo finds in print archives of a February 27th Kahlua Day  dates from 2009 in Chicago: “National Kahlua Day. Celebrate with $5.00 white Russian cocktails.”
