🍹 Hot Buttered Rum: The Ultimate Cozy Holiday Drink! 🎄

Looking for the perfect drink to warm you up this holiday season? Hot Buttered Rum is like taking all the best parts of the holidays and pouring them into a mug! Cozy, rich, and full of holiday spices, this decadent drink is sure to be your new favorite indulgence.

Hi, I’m Madelaine from Lakeside Table, and if you love easy homemade recipes that pack a big punch, be sure to hit the Subscribe button! Today, we’re making a seriously delicious Hot Buttered Rum—a drink that combines butter, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, and dark brown sugar, all topped off with spiced rum and whipped cream. It’s a holiday treat like no other.

I first tried this magical drink in Old Town Alexandria at Gatsby’s Tavern, and it was a religious experience. They served it with a big scoop of butter base, spiced rum, and boiling hot water. After trying that, I knew I had to recreate it at home (and I’m going all in with two sticks of butter—because if we’re doing it, we’re doing it right!).

What you’ll need:

Unsalted butter, dark brown sugar, and plenty of spices (cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and ginger)
Spiced rum, whipped cream, and a dash of cinnamon to top it all off
This drink is decadent—definitely not healthy, but it’s the ultimate holiday indulgence. Perfect for sharing with friends and family (or just enjoying on your own!). It’s like cozying up by the fire with the most comforting drink imaginable.
