First found in Jerry Thomas’ Bartender’s Guide under the name Hot Spiced Rum, the hot buttered rum is simply Rum, sugar, spices, and of course butter. Top that with hot water and you have a delectable hot cocktail perfect for a cold day.
We’ll be making two drinks today. One will be similar to Jerry Thomas’ version with a few tweaks, then we’ll make one using the Collins Hot Buttered Rum Cocktail Mix, which is especially useful when you need to make multiple cocktails quickly when hosting.
As you can see, both ways of making a Hot Buttered Rum are quick, easy, and delicious. If making for a crowd the Collins mix will help you to make multiple drinks quickly. Either way, you and your guests are sure to enjoy this cocktail. You can purchase this cocktail mix and everything else you need to make delicious hot cocktails this winter at KegWorks.com. Cheers!
