Angie's Corner: Rum Chata

Horchata Con Ron $21.99
         Typically in Angie's corner, I bring to your attention, unique and interesting products that we sell in Palate that I am enthusiastic about and want to share with you. This week, it is the reverse. We carry a product that our customers are so enthusiastic about, that last week, we sold 5 cases of it in one DAY. We honestly cannot keep Rum Chata, or "Yum" Chata, on the shelves. As soon as our shipments arrive, the supply in Palate has almost entirely dwindled.
         Taking a cue from our happy customers, I took the time this week to investigate what the fuss is all about. I am pleased to report that Rum Chata is a delight! The label states: "Caribbean Rum with Real Dairy Cream." This beverage is creamy with strong flavors of nutmeg, cinnamon and clove. It is surprisingly versatile; as it is appropriate for a beach vacation and perfect for the upcoming holidays. Thick and creamy, you can serve it before dinner, during a cocktail party or after dessert. Or, it can BE dessert. Honestly, this is a crowd pleaser.
       Rum Chata is not designed to take the place of your fine wine at dinner, but it is the perfect pre-dinner or post-dinner drink. Serve it over ice or pour it into your coffee for a holiday inspired hot beverage. Thank you, Palate customers, for giving Angie's Corner a new favorite!

May your champagne be filled with bubbles,
