My Salted Caramel Santa-tini is a delicious dessert cocktail, perfect for the holidays. Made with my homemade vanilla Vodka, salted caramel liqueur, Rumchata, and cinnamon syrup. This cocktail is definitely a treat.The notes of cinnamon, vanilla and caramel make it festive and fun. The best way to enjoy this cocktail is with a night cap, cuddled up by the fireplace watching your favorite Christmas movie.
It’s that time of year and one of my favorite things to do is create a vibe. Picture this, the kids are asleep, you’re cuddled up by the fireplace, watching your favorite Christmas movie while drinking this delicious salted caramel martini. A vibe indeed!
I’m so excited to share my festive cocktails with you all. As you may know I absolutely love the holidays and I’m taking any excuse to create all the festive moments.
Creating festive recipes and drinks has been so much fun and I hope you all are truly enjoying them.
I’m typically not a vodka gal but I’ve been challenging myself to make more cocktails with alcohol other than tequila.

Notes
For The Cinnamon Syrup
I also added cinnamon syrup to the cocktail. This is super simple to make and great to use for cocktails, mocktails and desserts throughout the holiday season. Simply muddle cinnamon sticks and add them to a sauce pan with equal parts sugar and water. Bring to a low boil, stirring until the sugar has dissolved. Then reduce the heat and simmer for about 8-10 minutes. Strain the liquid into a glass jar and store in the refrigerator. This is great for coffee in the morning, tea, desserts and cocktails of course.Did you make it?
