RumChata Mini-Chatas 15Pk is a 15-pack of single-serve cups containing RumChata cream liqueur at 13.75% ABV (27.5 proof). The original RumChata formula earned 90 points from Wine Enthusiast, and these portable cups deliver that same horchata-inspired blend of Caribbean rum, cinnamon, vanilla, and real dairy cream in a grab-and-go format.Quick Facts: ABV: 13.75% | Origin: Pewaukee, Wisconsin, USA | Style: Cream Liqueur | Producer: Agave Loco LLCProduction & HeritageRumChata launched in 2009 out of Pewaukee, Wisconsin, quickly rising to become the second-best-selling cream liqueur in the United States by 2016. The recipe starts with five-times distilled premium Caribbean rum selected specifically for its light, clean character, which is then homogenized with fresh Wisconsin dairy cream. Rice, cinnamon, and vanilla round out the blend, drawing direct inspiration from horchata — the traditional rice-and-cinnamon beverage with roots in Latin America and Spain. The Mini-Chatas format packages the identical liquid into individual cups modeled after coffee creamers, designed for portability and single-serve convenience.Tasting NotesAroma: Cinnamon leads immediately, followed by warm vanilla and a subtle undercurrent of toasted rice. The dairy cream softens everything into a dessert-like bouquet that stays inviting without becoming cloying.Taste: The entry is velvety and sweet, with vanilla cream coating the palate. At mid-palate, Caribbean rum warmth surfaces gently beneath the dairy richness, while balanced sweetness keeps the profile approachable. Cinnamon spice emerges gradually, tying the flavor back to its horchata inspiration.Finish: Medium in length with a gentle cinnamon warmth that lingers comfortably. The dairy cream gives the finish a smooth, rounded texture without any harsh alcohol bite.How to Drink Mini-ChatasThe most obvious serve is straight from the cup — chilled or at room temperature — as a standalone shot or dessert sipper. Drop a Mini-Chata into hot coffee or cocoa for an instant spiked drink. Beyond that, keep a few on hand for these cocktails: Cinnamon Toast Crunch Shot: Combine with Fireball Cinnamon Whisky for an amplified cinnamon-and-cream pairing that has become a modern bar staple. RumChata White Russian: Swap out traditional cream and use a Mini-Chata with vodka and coffee liqueur for a spiced twist on the Kahlúa classic. Horchata Espresso Martini: Shake with vodka and fresh espresso — the vanilla-cinnamon profile adds warmth that straight cream cannot replicate.

Mini-Chatas eliminate waste and measuring entirely. The liquid inside is the same 90-point Wine Enthusiast formula built on five-times distilled rum and fresh Wisconsin dairy cream. For tailgates, camping, parties, or simply keeping a stash in the fridge for morning coffee, this format turns a bottle-dependent product into something genuinely portable.
