Hot Buttered Rum
This is one of the 2 recipes I use, depending on what I’m craving:
1 stick unsalted butter, softened
2 cups brown sugar
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
pinch cloves
pinch salt
bottle dark rum
boiling water
In a bowl, cream together the butter, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves and salt. Refrigerate until almost firm. Spoon about 2 tbsp of the butter mixture into a mug, add 3 oz rum, top with boiling water and stir well.
