Caffeinated alcoholic drink

See also: List of caffeinated alcoholic drinks

A caffeinated alcoholic drink is a drink that contains both alcohol (or more specifically, ethanol) and a significant amount of caffeine. Caffeine, a stimulant, masks some of the depressant effects of alcohol. In 2010 and 2011, this type of drink faced criticism for posing health risks to its drinkers. In some places, there is a ban on caffeinated alcoholic drinks.

Sometimes, caffeinated alcoholic drinks are made by mixing existing caffeinated drinks (coffee, energy drinks, cola) with alcoholic drinks.
