Thursday February 27th is officially National Kahlua day, another one of our favorite Alcoholidays. I’m not sure exactly when I first fell in love with Kahlua, but I think it was around the time I saw the movie “The Big Lebowski” for the first time. “The Dude” make the white Russian a household name in virtually every bar in the country, and it had me scrambling to find the ingredients. Let’s have a sip tonight with one of these simple Kahlua recipes. If weeknight night caps aren’t your thing, save it for the weekend and go crazy.
Cheers!
