Like National Margarita Day we take celebrating National drinking holidays very seriously which is why today we are honoring that rich creamy liquor, Kahlua!  Happy National Kahlua Day!!

Kahlua is a delicious liquor from Mexico that is made with rum, Mexican coffee, sugar and vanilla.  It is used in many coffee flavored cocktail drinks, and desserts but also tastes great on the rocks.  In honor of this special holiday we want to know how you prefer drinking your Kahlua!  Also, we’re sharing a few of our favorite recipes containing the tasty liquor.

Feel free to join us for a drink this morning as we’ve poured a shot in our coffee.  Hey…we like to celebrate our National drinking holidays…and it helps cure a case of the Monday’s!

Cheers!
