Today, I’m going to share with you a recipe that’s not just a drink, but an experience – the “Shawsome.” This gem combines the creamy delight of Rumchata with the luxurious touch of Salted Caramel Crown Royal. Trust me, it’s a royal treat for your taste buds!

The Shawsome: A Symphony in a Glass

Ingredients:

• 1 oz Rumchata
• 1 oz Salted Caramel Crown Royal

Instructions:

1. Chill Your Glass: Start by chilling your cocktail glass. A cold glass ensures that every sip is as refreshing as the first.
2. Mix It Up: In a shaker, combine 1 oz of Rumchata with 1 oz of Salted Caramel Crown Royal. The Rumchata brings a creamy, almost dessert-like base, while the Crown Royal adds a rich, caramel sweetness with a hint of saltiness.
3. Shake, Shake, Shake: Add ice to the shaker and shake it vigorously. You want to mix these flavors thoroughly to create a smooth, unified taste.
4. Strain and Serve: Strain the mixture into your chilled glass. The beauty of this drink is in its simplicity – no garnish needed.

Why We Loved It

The Perfect Balance: David, with his love for unique flavors and craft cocktails, was impressed by how the salted caramel notes of the Crown Royal perfectly complemented the creamy Rumchata. It’s like they were made for each other!

Sweet but Not Too Sweet: As someone who leans towards sweeter drinks, I found the Shawsome to be right up my alley. It’s sweet, but not overwhelmingly so. The salted caramel brings a lovely balance that prevents it from being too sugary.

Versatility: This drink is versatile. It’s perfect for a cozy night in, a fancy dinner party, or just when you want to treat yourself to something special. It’s easy to make but feels luxurious – a winning combination in my book.

Conclusion

The Shawsome is more than just a drink; it’s a delightful experience. It’s perfect for those evenings when you want something simple yet sophisticated. Whether you’re a fan of creamy cocktails or have a sweet tooth, this drink is sure to impress.
