RumChata Horchata Con Ron
Can you really write an article about cream liqueurs without mentioning RumChata ($23) The holiday fave balances Caribbean rum with fresh Wisconsin cream and plenty of spices, so it makes a delicious addition to coffee, hot chocolate and even root beer. Have some left? Don’t miss out on our editor’s favorite RumChata cheesecake.
Blue Chair Bay Pineapple Rum Cream
If winter weather’s got you down, Blue Chair Bay Pineapple Rum Cream ($20) will transport you to a more tropical state of mind. Pour it in a glass with a few ice cubes or blend it up for a beach-ready drink.
Kerrygold Irish Cream
We all know and love Kerrygold butter—but its Irish Cream ($22) is sure to become a household must-have, too. It’s made using cream from small Irish farms that are held to the highest quality standards, and we found it to be creamier than other similar drinks.
Serengeti Marula Cream
Serengeti Marula Cream ($19) is probably unlike any other cream liqueur you’ve ever tasted. Full of fruity flavor thanks to South African Marula tree extract, we recommend sipping it solo on ice to experience the full flavor profile.
Baileys Almande
Who says winter liqueurs have to be heavy? This light, delicate liqueur ($25) combines vanilla and almond milk to create a refreshing drink, perfect for mixing or sipping alone. The best part? It’s dairy-free, so those with dietary sensitivities can enjoy it, too. Be sure to try these desserts you can douse with Irish cream.
Whisper Creek Peanut Butter Chocolate Cream Liqueur

Sugarlands Appalachian Sipping Butter Pecan Cream Liqueur
Toasted praline, smooth vanilla, and a hint of creme brulee combine in this butter pecan cream liqueur ($23). Pour it in your coffee or hot chocolate for a punch of sweet flavor sure to keep you warm all winter long. It would also pair perfectly with these Pecan Sandies.
