'''Tia Maria''' is a [[coffee]] [[liqueur]] made originally in Jamaica using Jamaican [[coffee]] beans. The main flavour ingredients are [[coffee beans]], [[cane]] spirit, [[vanilla]], and [[sugar]], blended to an alcoholic content of 31.5% (alcoholic content as sold has been reduced to 20%).<br />
<br />
The drink was invented by Dr. Evans in Jamaica just after World War II. He invited acquaintances from the Country Club in Kingston to try various formulas at his lab until the final version was accepted.<br />
<br />
The Tia Maria brand was bought by the industry giant Pernod Ricard through their Malibu-KahlĂșa International subsidiary in 2005, for distribution in France. It was sold to Illva Saronno in 2009.<br />
<br />
It can be consumed pure and with ice, but is also frequently used as an ingredient for [[cocktails]], with [[coffee]], or in [[desserts]] (such as the layered liqueur-whipped-cream-and-cookie confection known as Tia Maria torte). It may also be mixed with [[milk]] and ice.<br />
===References in popular culture===<br />
Elvis Costello's song "The St. Stephen's Day Murders" refers to a drink made from Tia Maria and "that drink made from girders".<br />
