In the egg nog post, you mentioned hot buttered rum. Forgive my ignorance about this, but can you buy it in any store? What is the best way to heat it?
Re: **Jweat**
I imagine you can buy it, but we always make our own mix
. It's, um, healthy:
In a large sauce pan over low heat, melt 2 sticks of butter. Add 1 3/4 cups of brown sugar, 1/2 tsp nutmeg, 1/2 tsp cinnamon, and a dash of allspice. Stir to disolve.
Remove from heat and stir in a pint of vanilla ice cream (2 cups).
Then, you can refrigerate the mix to use as needed. To serve, combine 1 tbsp of the mix (I like a little more than that because I like it sweet), 1 jigger of rum (I usually do a bit less) and a cup of boiling water. Top with whipped cream and a dash of nutmeg.
This makes a BUNCH of servings, so you could cut in in half if you're going to be serving a smaller group of people. It's pretty easy, actually!
