I love challenging myself to come up with creative new ways to mix RumChata, and the cinnamon-and-cream deliciousness always mixes very well with other items in the bar.

Because Fall is coming soon, I’ve begun thinking about seasonal flavors I can mix with RumChata, and decided on a spiced concoction that turned out really beautiful and really tasty. I’ve named it the Angel Wings because of the deceptively pink-ness of the drink, which is surprisingly strong. Here’s how to make it:

Angel Wings (by Greg Mays)

• in a cocktail shaker, combine:
• 1 oz RumChata
• 2 oz reposado tequila
• 1/2 oz herbal liqueur (like Jägermeister)
• 1/4 oz Grenadine
• shake with ice and strain into a chilled cocktail glass
• garnish with cherries

The spice and the tequila balance very well with the spices in RumChata and make for a bright, flavorful and tasty cocktail.
