Hot Buttered Rum Recipe
Description
The Hot Buttered Rum Recipe starts with a batter made from butter, powdered and light brown sugars, vanilla ice cream, and warming spices including cinnamon and nutmeg. This batter is softened then creamed together and frozen in small portions for easy use. When ready, a spoonful of the batter is melted into boiling water and combined with rum, then finished with a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra aroma and flavor.
This drink offers a rich texture and comforting spice, with the creamy ice cream contributing smoothness and sweetness. The spices provide classic warming notes that enhance the butter and rum, making it suitable for sipping on chilly evenings.
To serve, simply mix the frozen batter portion with hot water and rum, garnishing with cinnamon if desired. The batter can be stored in freezer-safe containers or ice cube trays for up to three months, allowing for ready-to-use servings that save prep time.
