Rob's hot buttered rum December 4, 2012 8:56 pm RobVG

‘Tis the season

To one steaming mug of water add:

1 Tbl of butter. Ok less if you must.

1 pinch of each- Cinnamon, Nutmeg, Pumpkin Pie spice. Cloves if you feel like it.

Two heaping Tsp of brown sugar

Let the spices steep for a bit and then stir. Add a jigger of plain rum.

I use Pumpkin pie spice because it usually contains ginger. Slicing a few pieces of fresh ginger would be even better.

Enjoy
