Since last week was Mexican Independence Day (September 16), we received several suggestions for cocktails that included Kahlúa. Created in 1936, and refined to its current recipe in Mérida, the capital city of the Yucatan, Kahlúa is a liqueur that hadn’t really crossed our path, except as an ingredient in Coffee Martinis and Black Russians. After making some truly awful concoctions (most of which involved mixing Kahlúa and Tequila – just because they’re both products of Mexico does NOT mean they taste good together), we came across the Yucatan Sling.
