Notes
Becky's Tips
Choose a good quality vodka - for a smoother sip.
RumChata is a mix of rum, cream, cinnamon and vanilla, reminiscent of horchata, a Latin-American drink. If you prefer, you can use Bailey's Irish Cream.
Shake the mix in a cocktail shaker with ice. Once the shaker feels cold, the drink is ready to pour.
