KFC Blends Its Fried Chicken’s Secret Ingredients To Concoct A Spiced Rum
By Nicole Rodrigues, 24 Aug 2023
KFC has joined forces with Dead Man’s Fingers (DMF), the UK-based rum brand, to concoct a rum that’s as finger-lickin’ good as it gets.
And by that, the duo has incorporated KFC’s Original Recipe consisting of 11 herbs, spices, and even golden bread flavoring right into the liquor.
The bottle design of the KFC X DMF spiced rum is a visual testament to this unique fusion. It incorporates elements from KFC’s branding, prominently featuring the iconic Colonel’s image and adorning the label with white stripes reminiscent of KFC’s signature buckets.
Accompanying it is the original DMF logo as a tamper seal on the bottle’s neck and the KFC co-branding.
As part of the launch, fans will be able to visit a pop-up store in Margate, UK where a bartender will be serving up a series of cocktails with the new rum. On top of that, free chicken will be available to go with the drinks.
The liqueur can be used as a mixer to add a little splash of KFC to your cola and cocktail. KFC fanatics and rum lovers can find it on Amazon UK for £25 (US$32). However, as of the time of writing, it is sold out on the site.
