Boozy Rumchata Latte

Craft Cocktails

12 Aug
Jump to Recipe

Truth be told, I really didn’t know what to call this drink. At home I call it a “latte cocktail” but if I could, I’d call it “my new favorite drink ever”. If you’re a fan of a good cinnamon latte, this is the grown-up, after-dinner version! A little cinnamon, a little nuttiness, and a splash of cream– just for an extra indulgence! Made with Rumchata, Kahula, and Frangelico, this cocktail packs a secret punch but trust me, you’ll love it.

Let’s Talk Alcohol

What is rumchata?

Rumchata is a liqueur similar to Bailey’s Irish Cream that has a subtle cinnamon flavor. It’s inspired by Horchata, a drink typically made from rice, almonds, cinnamon, sugar, and water. If you’ve never had Rumchata (or Horchata), I think it tastes similar to Cinnamon Toast Crunch– but in booze form.
Substitution: Bailey’s Irish Cream + 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon

What is frangelico?

Frangelico is an Italian hazelnut flavored liqueur. It’s warm, nutty, and helps enhance the cinnamon and coffee flavors in the drink.
Substitution: Amaretto

what is kahlua?

Kahlua is a coffee flavored liqueur from Mexico. It tastes like a boozy shot of espresso– with a rich flavor and slight nuttiness.
Substitute: Espresso or Strong Black Coffee — I suggest Decaf!

Step one: Kahlua

I have to say I wasn’t a huge fan until I tried this iced honey matcha latte! Something about the honey with the tea just makes it all work. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Mix up 1 tsp of matcha with 1/4 cup of water and 1-2 tbsp of honey. Pour over your choice of milk and enjoy! You can also add a small splash of vanilla for extra sweetness. Try it out and let me know what you think!! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
