Meaning and background
The story behind Kahlua
Kahlua has a recognizable brand association with Kahlúa coffee liqueur. The brand's own product page places its beginnings in Veracruz, Mexico, in 1936 and describes its coffee-based character. The unaccented spelling preserves that familiar reference for a name list. This is a documented beverage association rather than a verified personal-name etymology; a translation or traditional naming history should not be inferred from the product's Mexican origin.
