Hot Buttered Rum with Apple Cider

Equipment

  • Mixer or food processor

Ingredients

  • 1 stick Unsalted butter
  • 1/2 cup Brown sugar
  • 1 tsp Ground allspice
  • 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp Ground cloves
  • 1 tsp Ground nutmeg
  • a pinch Salt
  • 1 tsp Vanilla extract
  • 4 tbsp Dark rum (per drink)
  • 64 oz Apple cider (I used the honey crisp one from Trader Joe's)

Optional Garnishes

  • 4-6 Cinnamon sticks
  • Fresh cranberries

Instructions

  • Heat the apple cider in a large pot until hot (just how hot is up to you).
  • Put the butter, spices, salt, brown sugar, and vanilla extract in the bowl of a stand mixer or food processor. Beat or mix until combined. Note: you can also do this by hand, but that's definitely more annoying.
  • Add 2 tbsp of the butter compound to a heat-proof cup. Then add 4 tbsp of rum, and fill the rest of the cup with hot apple cider. Stir, and repeat with new cups until you've got the desired number of drinks. Add in any garnishes, and enjoy!
