National Hot Buttered Rum Day isn’t until January 17th, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t share this delicious, creamy, buttery drink mix for the holidays.
This is better and healthier than a store-bought version. Ice cream, butter and sugar make up the base recipe—all real ingredients. Stored in the freezer, it makes the perfect go-to cocktail for cold winter nights and holiday celebrations.
My co-worker shared this recipe with me 37 years ago and it’s been a mainstay ever since.
Cheers!
Ingredients
1 lb. brown sugar
1 lb. powdered sugar
1 lb. soft butter
1 qt. soft vanilla ice cream
Rum
Nutmeg
Instructions
Mix the sugars, butter, and ice cream together well.
Store the mix in the freezer.
TO MAKE THE COCKTAIL:
Mix two tablespoons hot buttered rum mix in a cup of very hot water, along with 1 jigger of rum. Mix well.
Sprinkle with nutmeg.
Enjoy!

[…] At our house this year, instead of our usual 20-30 guests, Ron and I will dine with Ron’s parents. ♥ We will wear our masks while nibbling hors d’oeuvres. We’ll sip our wine during mask calisthenics. We’ll dine outside under the gazebo (the best investment to our home we’ve made to date), spaced the requisite 6 ft. apart. We’ll add a roaring fire between us for good measure, kick back, and sip homemade hot buttered rums. […]
