Kahlúa is a coffee liqueur from Veracruz, Mexico. The drink contains rum, sugar, and 100% arabica coffee.
Kahlúa is used to make cocktails or drink neat or on ice. Some people use it when baking desserts, and/or as a topping for ice cream, cakes, and cheesecakes.
It is mixed in several ways, often with different combinations of milk, cream, coffee and cocoa.
Because Kahlúa is made from coffee beans, it contains caffeine. According to the company, it contains “approximately 10 mg per 100 mL (4.85 mg in each 1.5 oz) drink” or about 25% the amount found in the same volume of coffee.
