My FIL enjoys this hot drink, but one year the commercial brand he usually had just wasn't available in our town. After trying out some other homemade mixes, I came up with this one. Easy to make for yourself or for a gift.
Cream all ingredients together until well blended.
Store in a glass jar with tight fitting lid. Keep in your refrigerator. Can also be frozen for longer storage. Makes a wonderful gift when packaged in a decorative canning jar.
To make a mug of Hot Buttered Rum: Add one tbsp of mix to 3/4 cup hot water and 1 oz rum. (Adjust to your personal taste.).
