When I hear the words HOT BUTTERED RUM, I see a glass of warm rum with a glob of butter in it. Here is a recipe to try:

Oh my! I can't believe this! Of all my flavored coffees I was in the mood for the Hot Buttered Rum flavored one this morning! Now I know why!

I have always loved Hot Buttered Rum ... years ago I had no trouble finding it on menus ...

But for a long time now, I have not seen it on any menus and when I ask for it specifically, it is not available ...

I have bought the powdered drink in an envelope, but that is not what I am looking for ..

I guess I will try the recipe and see what that is like ...

This reminds me of Mary Poppins, whose cough syrup was hot buttered rum flavor, IIRC. I haven't had rum since I was in high school.

I bought an old fashioned small cup set they had years ago at Christmastime. We had hot buttered rum in them several times over the holidays.

Wonderful!

ps You can also buy a mix in liquor stores to make them with (it looks like solid pack brown sugar) but it's easy to make it yourself.

Not something I would drink often, but once in awhile, Holidays or just the right Winter night, it's delicious!

We made hot buttered rum mix all the time at Xmas.

It called for a quart of vanilla ice cream, a lb of butter and a box of brown sugar. Kept it in the freezer. I'm pretty sure that was the recipe. I don't make it as I don't drink now but it was very good with brandy in it as well as rum.

I like hot buttered rum on a cold night, with or without the rum. We used to drink them after skiing. I've never had mine with vanilla ice cream though, sounds delicious. Recently I came across a tin of hot buttered rum mix made by The Spice Hunter that someone had given me. It's still good since it is just a blend of spices in a sealed tin. It contains brown sugar, Chinese cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, allspice, cloves, and lemon oil. The recipe just calls for 1 Tbsp of mix, 2 tsp butter, 6 oz boiling water and a jigger of rum. It would be easy to make your own mix. I made it without the rum and it was delicious and smells divine. I even put a tablespoon of it simmering on the stove to enjoy the aroma. It would be really good with vanilla ice cream, in eggnog, or egg mixture for french toast.
