What is Cremas or Haitian Cremas?
This alcoholic drink is somewhat similar to Bailey’s – in taste and texture. This type of beverage is served as a dessert drink mostly. It usually replaces dessert wine at festive gatherings. Many Haitians enjoy this traditional drink in the comfort of their home, at parties, christenings, communion, or weddings. Cremas are typically served in small glasses.
This Haitian Cremas recipe is not authentic. Each method or recipe is different. Every household, region, and commercially licensed beverage distributor make cremas differently.
A few words of advice: With all alcoholic beverages, proper consumption is advised. Drinking and driving do not mix. This drink can impair your senses.
Just don’t forget that it is served cold and must be stored in the refrigerator. If you buy a bottle, refrigerate it after opening. The perfect combination of smoothness and sweetness will leave you wanting more!
There are several sweetened tropical drinks in the world, and most are intoxicating to one degree or another. Few, however, can rival the taste of good Haitian Cremas (or Kremas). I highly recommend trying it out, as it’s just sheer pleasure from start to finish.
