What kind of alcohol is Calypso?
Calypso is a coconut-flavoured liqueur, typically made by blending white rum with natural coconut extract and light sweeteners. Unlike regular rum, it has a lower alcohol percentage, making it perfect for relaxed sipping or tropical-style cocktails.
Calypso drink alcohol percentage
The Calypso drink alcohol percentage averages between 15–21% ABV, depending on the variant. This gives it a smooth, balanced profile — not too strong, not too light — ideal for mixing with fruit juice, cream, or soda.

Calypso wine vs Calypso drink
While often referred to as Calypso wine in casual searches, the product is actually a coconut liqueur, not a grape-based wine. Its smooth coconut flavour and rum foundation make it closer to a dessert or cocktail drink than a traditional wine. A coconut liqueur is a sweet, coconut-flavoured alcoholic drink typically made by blending rum or neutral spirits with coconut extract, sugar, and water. It’s smoother and lighter than straight rum, making it perfect for mixing in tropical cocktails or enjoying chilled on its own.
Is Calypso sold in the UK?
Yes. Calypso Coconut Liqueur is available in the UK, sold in selected supermarkets, African and Caribbean stores, and online liquor retailers. It is often stocked alongside other tropical and cream-based liqueurs.
