Like wine? Well, now you can have both. In a _single can_. Friends Fun Wine has invented the [world’s first coffee-wine hybrid drinks](http://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/prnewswire/press%5Freleases/Florida/2014/06/26/NY57847), which sound pre-destined to taste bad. The drinks come in both red and white varieties: Cabernet Coffee Espresso and Chardonnay Coffee Cappuccino. The company is marketing their product as “combining the world’s most popular Day Drink with the world’s most popular Night Drink,” according a news release. No one is arguing with the appeal of using caffeine to combat the sleepy feeling you get when indulging in a glass of vino. But there may be a reason that people usually keep these day and night drinks separate. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/2930741/this-exists-coffee-flavored-wine-in-a-can/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/2930741/this-exists-coffee-flavored-wine-in-a-can/"},"headline":"This Exists: Coffee-Flavored Wine in a Can","datePublished":"2014-06-27T00:03:46.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:11:12.810Z","description":"Doesn't sound like a great flavor combination","url":"https://time.com/2930741/this-exists-coffee-flavored-wine-in-a-can/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Food & Drink"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt3c4fa84f4cae0bd2/6986998acd804d306cccbadc/121790.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Eliana Dockterman","jobTitle":"Correspondent","url":"https://time.com/author/eliana-dockterman/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt3c4fa84f4cae0bd2/6986998acd804d306cccbadc/121790.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Friends Fun Wine Coffee Wine","caption":"Friends Fun Wine Coffee Wine","creditText":"Friends Fun Wine/PRNews Foto","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/2930741/this-exists-coffee-flavored-wine-in-a-can/","name":"This Exists: Coffee-Flavored Wine in a Can"}}]}] ```
