Hot Buttered Rum Mix: Ingredients & Equipment

For this Hot Buttered Rum Mix recipe, you will need …

Ingredients

• butter, brown sugar, powdered sugar – the “buttered” part of the hot buttered rum! Alongside the ice cream, this will rise in your rum to make a delicious topping.
• dark Jamaican rum or spiced rum – grab your favorite brand. Rum is associated with Christmas in many places, so if it’s wintertime where you are, there are probably lots of sales going on.
• nutmeg – to sprinkle on top of the hot buttered rum once it’s done.
• hot coffee or simmering water – you’ll fill up the rest of your mug with one of these since you’re not making a whole MUG of just rum! (Although I suppose you could …)
• vanilla ice cream and cinnamon – you’ll add this to your rum for an additional creamy-earthy-sweet topping. Delicious!

Equipment

• large coffee mug – yes, this is all you’ll need to make this recipe mix, y’all!

How to make Hot Buttered Rum Mix

Hot Buttered Rum Mix

Ingredients

• 1-1/2 teaspoons butter
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1-1/2 teaspoons powdered sugar
• 1-1/2 to 2 fluid ounces dark Jamaican rum or spiced rum
• 2 tablespoons vanilla ice cream
• 1 pinch of ground cinnamon
• 1/2 cup simmering water or hot coffee
• 1 pinch of ground nutmeg

Instructions

1. In the bottom of a large coffee mug, combine the butter, brown sugar, and powdered sugar until well combined.
2. Pour in the rum, add the ice cream and cinnamon, and fill the remainder of the mug with simmering water or hot coffee. Mix the drink with a stirrer or fork until the ice cream and butter have melted together to make a creamy topping.

Notes

• Try different ice cream flavors for a new treat. Coffee, cinnamon, sea salt caramel, and dulce de leche are all great!
• You can also try using a flavored refrigerated coffee creamer instead of ice cream. Sweet cream and vanilla are two of my favorites, but there are quite a few other tasty options, like caramel or hazelnut.
