Hot Buttered Rum
Ingredients
For the Batter:
- 2 tablespoons butter softened, unsalted
- 1 brown sugar light or dark, tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon
- 1 tablespoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ⅛ teaspoon cloves
- Pinch kosher salt
For the Cocktails:
- 4 ounces dark rum or spiced rum for an even spicier drink, divided
- 1 cup water hot
- Whipped Cream for serving
- cinnamon stick optional for serving
- nutmeg optional for serving, freshly grated
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mash together the butter, brown sugar, honey, cinnamon, ginger, cloves, and salt with a spoon until combined. Divide the mixture between two serving mugs (of if only making 1 drink at the moment, place half in a glass and refrigerate the other half for up to 2 weeks).
- Add 2 ounces rum to each mug.
- Boil in a kettle or in a heatproof liquid measuring cup in the microwave. Top each drink with ½ cup hot water. Stir to combine. (I love my drinks screaming hot so at this point, I microwave for about 30 seconds, but you do you.)
- Serve immediately, topped with whipped cream and garnished with a cinnamon stick and a few gratings of fresh nutmeg.
