Caribbean Rum Cream (With No Fresh Cream)
There's something rather lovely about making your own little bottle of something special, isn't there?
This homemade Caribbean Rum Cream is one of those delicious old-fashioned treats that feels like a little taste of sunshine. Golden rum, rich coffee, sweet vanilla and just a whisper of freshly grated nutmeg, all blended together into the most beautifully smooth and creamy drink.
No fresh cream, no fuss, just a handful of simple ingredients and a recipe you'll want to make time and time again.
It reminds me of those lovely homemade drinks brought out on special occasions, poured into little glasses, shared with friends and family, and enjoyed over a good old natter.
Best served cold, with plenty of ice and a little moment to yourself. And wouldn't a pretty bottle of this make the loveliest homemade Christmas gift?
A little Caribbean sunshine in a bottle, made with love at Shortcake Cottage.
No fresh cream needed. The condensed and evaporated milks give this rum cream its lovely rich, silky texture.
Make sure your espresso is completely cold before adding it.
A little freshly grated nutmeg gives it that gorgeous Caribbean flavour.
Keep refrigerated and enjoy chilled. As this is homemade, use within a couple of weeks rather than storing it like a commercially bottled rum cream.
Perfect for Christmas, homemade gifts or simply a cheeky little glass over ice.
