FAQs
RumChata is a cream liqueur made with rum, cream, natural cinnamon, vanilla, sugar and other flavors. It is comprised of rum and horchata, a milky drink made from ground ingredients like almonds or rice.
This recipe can be made without alcohol for a kid friendly version. The alcohol will not completely cook off in the slow cooker because of the lid, but it will be reduced.
No slow cooker, no problem. You can add RumChata to instant hot cocoa with caramel drizzle.
