What is Kahlua? It is a coffee liqueur, which is prepared on the basis of rum. The drink came to us from Hawaii. According to historical sources, it has been prepared on the islands since the second half of the 19th century, but its popularity came later. In its modern form, the drink became known in 1936, when the Alvarez brothers, who lived in Veracruz, Mexico, prepared this beautiful liqueur from locally sourced ingredients.

In the 1940s, active exports to the U.S. began, where the liquor immediately found thousands of fans. Twenty years later, the liquor manufacturer began to pay more attention to advertising the drink, which played a huge role in its distribution.
