Another warm cocktail recipe that needs to be in your winter rotation — hot buttered rum! \u2661<\/p>\n

I have to admit I was late to the party when it came to this classic rum cocktail, having spent years usually turning to mulled wine<\/a> or a hot toddy<\/a> once the weather grew cold. But while living in Europe, we were (re)introduced to various versions of this creamy spiced cocktail and were quickly reminded why it’s been such a favorite now for centuries. It’s absolutely delightful! And, as it turns out, a super<\/em> convenient cocktail for large groups if you happen to be entertaining around the holidays.<\/p>\n

This colonial-era cocktail is said to have originally been made by floating a pat of butter atop a mug filled with hot water and rum. But most modern versions usually kick things up a notch by adding a spiced butter batter<\/em> to the cocktail, made with warming spices, sugar, a pinch of salt, and — the surprise starring ingredient — a few scoops of vanilla ice cream. It only takes a few minutes to mix up a batch of the butter batter, then you can pop it in the freezer to have on hand all season long to mix with rum and hot water for an impromptu single cocktail or a big batch for a dinner party with friends. We’ve found it to be such a fun drink to serve at winter gatherings and everyone always loves the creamy, frothing topping served with a cute cinnamon stick for garnish.<\/p>\n

So if you’re looking for a cozy cocktail to warm up with this season, grab a bottle of rum and let’s make a batch!<\/p>\n
