How to Enjoy It
Kahlúa Original is the heart of the White Russian (with vodka and cream), the Black Russian (with vodka) and the Mudslide (with vodka and Irish cream). It is also the classic base for an espresso martini, shaken with vodka and a fresh shot of espresso. Enjoy it over ice, add it to your favourite cup of coffee or cold brew, or use it in dessert recipes such as tiramisu and chocolate cake. Add a twist with mint leaves or whipped cream. For a gathering, chill the bottle and set out glasses, ice and garnishes so guests can serve themselves. A bottle also makes a thoughtful host gift for a dinner party or the holidays. Keep the bottle in a cool, dark place after opening.
