Looking for the next great shot and drinking ritual to electrify the 
night? The good news is that it’s always “midnight” somewhere, and all there is 
to do is chill, pour, and shoot. Guaranteed to inspire epic nightlife moments, 
Kahlúa Midnight™, a 70 proof mix of rum and black 
coffee liqueur, makes its debut today in bars and retailers nationwide. This 
bold, yet slightly sweet creation is a delicious mixture of smooth rum mixed 
with strong black coffee. It is intended to be served chilled as a shot that can 
transform an otherwise unremarkable night into an unforgettable one. It embodies 
the spirit of the midnight hour, a time where a new day is dawning and 
possibilities seem endless.
“Kahlúa Midnight is a huge step forward for 
the brand. We wanted to create a strong product that not only tastes amazing but 
has the ability to elevate the social experience of a night out with friends,” 
said Michelle Sanders, Brand Director for Kahlúa. 
“Kahlúa Midnight succeeds on all fronts. It’s a 70 
proof spirit that goes down easily, and the added boost from the black coffee 
flavor is sure to awaken the senses. This is a great new drink people will rally 
around.”
A twist on the beloved original Kahlúa, the 
number one coffee liqueur in the world, Kahlúa 
Midnight is bound to be the next crowd-pleasing, go-to shot among party goers 
everywhere. The taste is smooth, bold, and just a tad sweet, setting it apart 
from the standard sticky and sugary sweet coffee liqueurs on the market 
today.
With the growing consumer trend toward coffee-flavored products, coupled 
with the desire for a sweeter straight shot, Kahlúa 
sees an opportunity to promote its own simple approach with chilled Kahlúa Midnight followed by a fresh orange slice. Ideal for 
any occasion—whether a celebratory cheers or simply a night on the town, Kahlúa Midnight bursts with flavor.
