...in my head

One of my random childhood memories is hot buttered rum. My mother used to bring home a container of mix every once in a while, and we'd both have a cup, only mine without the rum -- a hot buttered.

One of my random childhood memories is hot butttered.

And I wanted to retaste that memory the other day, which I did.

I found a recipe online and made a half-batch of mix and then proceeded to drink hot buttered rums until it was all gone.

Over several days, of course.

Who doesn't love a beverage that is nothing more than spicy, sugary butter.

Dad claims it tastes like disgusting medicine, but if it is so icky, why do I have to fend off kittens while I am drinking it?

Hot Buttered Rum Mix
(Makes 15 Servings)
 
2 lb. brown sugar
1 lb. butter
1 tsp. cinnamon
1 tsp. cloves
1 tsp. nutmeg

Mix together thoroughly.

Put 1 - 2 T. mix in a coffee mug, add a shot of rum, and fill to the brim with hot water. Drink it up, buttercup.

Mmm. Mmm. Mmm.
