To think Baileys could be outdone by RumChata??

I've been a Baileys girl all my life. Ever since I'd steal illicit sips from my mums glass at 3 (hey it was the 80s!) it's been a mainstay of my Christmas.

This year I've been bought a wonderful thing called RumChata. It's a cream licquer with rum, vanilla and cinnamon. It's SO bloody lovely. I feel like my Baileys days may be numbered (currently cooking Christmas dinner and trying both out to choose if you can't tell Xmas GrinXmas GrinXmas Grin)

Cinnamon in a drink? Yuck

LoniceraJaponica · 25/12/2017 13:38

Sorry. Drunk too much Champagne Blush

Wink Mumsnetter after my own heart. I'm drinking these whilst the champagne chills 😆

I've never heard of it but now I need some. It sounds amazing.

Dh has got some coole swan. Apparently this is better than baileys...and he has always been a baileys guy

BeeFarseer · 25/12/2017 14:58

I've tried Coole Swan. It's thinner and lighter than Baileys, and very smooth, but I still prefer Baileys. My favourite Irish cream is Lidl's Deluxe version.

SilverySurfer · 25/12/2017 15:44

I loathe cinnamon and that it's put in everything at Christmas so I'll pass thanks.

We did a Baileys blind taste test last night. With Baileys, Lidl's version and Sainsbury's version. Sainsbury's came out the favourite and NONE of us could tell the difference between Baileys and Lidl!!!

LuckyAmy1986 · 25/12/2017 15:54

This Rumchata sounds amazing and I will be hunting it out

IllHaveALargeGlassOfRed · 25/12/2017 16:10

I'll be looking out for RumChata too! I'm a Baileys gal but always got an eye open for something new! I bought a massive bottle of Coole Swan at the airport - bloody tasty but it's no Baileys! I love a creamy alcoholic drink me Grin

Is it horchata with rum? Horchata is lush.

LoniceraJaponica · 25/12/2017 16:14

I have a bottle of horchata with brandy. It is an excellent vegan substitute for Baileys.

Monkeypuzzle32 · 25/12/2017 16:15

Bold statement re the Rumchata but now I need to try it!!

VivaLeBeaver · 25/12/2017 16:20

They need to bring back Dooleys.

Monkeypuzzle32 · 25/12/2017 16:20

Dooleys....yum!

glitterglitters · 25/12/2017 16:45

Ooh loved a Dooleys Smile

And yep think it's horchata with dark rum.

Lidl’s version is very nice, I loved baileys gliders back in the day!

altiara · 25/12/2017 17:01

Where do you buy it from? Sounds like I need this

undertheradarplease · 25/12/2017 18:46

Waaaaaah, what is this heavenly elixir? I've been a Baileys girl since I exited the womb but I must admit that once I tasted Coole Swan my loyalty wavered. Coole Swan is the finest Irish Cream I ever tasted. Just showed the husband this and we've promptly ordered. You're an angel, OP Xmas Grin

@undertheradarplease enjoy!!!
