The Best RumChata Snickerdoodle Martini Recipe

National Martini Day has come and gone, June 19th, but that doesn’t mean I can’t show off this Snickerdoodle Martini.

I recently discovered the Whole Foods Market near my house makes phenomenal Snickerdoodle cookies in their bakery. So, I was feeling a little inspired! I even used them as a prop for the photo shoot.

If there is one thing I enjoy more than a good cookie, it might be a delicious martini. So, let’s talk about this Snickerdoodle Martini and why tastes heavenly.

Why You Will Love Making This Martini Recipe

As you may already know, I love to cook. But did you know I love a dessert martini? From Chocolate Martinis to Espresso Martinis to Tiramisu Martinis I love the sweet decadence in a martini glass. 

Some martini recipes require a bit of skill whereas other recipes, like this RumChata Snickerdoodle recipe do not! All you need to to gather the three ingredients with a bit of ice, pour them in a shaker, and you are done. If you are feeling fancy, pour it into a fancy glass and add some of your favorite garnishes and that is it!

Now, let’s review the tools and ingredients needed for this recipe as well as how to make it!

Tools

RumChata Snickerdoodle Martini Ingredients

RumChata: RumChata is a creamy cinnamon vanilla rum liquor. This is the base for this cinnamon sugar-based cookie.

White Chocolate Liquor: White Chocolate Liquor is the secret ingredient. This is what gives the martini that decadence and dessert flavor that will make your taste buds smile. I like to use Godiva white chocolate liquor. 

Vanilla Vodka: Adding Vanilla Vodka is akin to adding vanilla extract to a recipe. It adds that little umph the martini needs.

Ice: Ice for shaking or stirring, we are not picky here! Let’s cool it all down while also thinning with some of that icy cool water.

 

 

Garnishes 

Whipped Cream: the perfect topper for this decadence.

Cinnamon Sugar: A pop of browns on the whipped cream gives the martini that classic snickerdoodle look. I used date sugar, which happens to be the perfect color!

Sharper Nutrition Fix: Rum Chata History

Did you know the iconic RumChata Liquor has been manufactured in Wisconsin since 2009? This liquor was created to taste like a mixture of rum and horchata. So, here are several trivia facts about the lovely RumChata.

  • Per Thrillist, RumChata was the world’s first rum-based cream liquor!
  • RumChata does not need to be refrigerated and a 1.5oz serving has 140 calories.
  • Another famous RumChata creation is the Cinnamon Toast Crunch shot. Mix RumChata and fireball whisky.
  • Horchata: a milky beverage made from ground almonds, tiger nuts, or rice.
