OMG I would say for almost 45 years I have described this drink to many people and not one of them had ever tried this or knew a good recipe but thought it sounded good. I rode to a football game with a friend and his parents in the 8th grade. On the way there his mother kept talking about how good the hot butterd rum was to his dad. After the fourth time of her mentioning it, my buddy said "we want to try it mom". That woman turned around, handed her cup back and said....."just take a sip and don't drink all my drink" and by god we both took a sip. I can remember two things vividly. Her actually handing that thing back to us and how damn good that drink tasted. Finally a killer recipes. To be honest I'm not surprised I found it here. I have been looking throught your channel and this is an awesome tutorial page. I am going to learn a ton from you. My OCD always helps with that...lol
Oh wow! The spiced butter batter is a great idea for a quick, holiday season pantry item! You can make so many tasty drinks with this at hand. Nicely done Rob, this drink looks fantastic!
You’re not a fan of cloves??? I love that spice! Love how you are storing the extra compound butter in the freezer. That butter can also be used as a filling to cinnamon roll dough if you ever make it from scratch.
Ooh good point! Although there won’t be much left after making a few of these hehehe…. Yea cloves don’t do it for me, I find they overpower even in tiny amounts. When I make pumpkin pie or gingerbread, I tend to leave it out
When we lived in Calgary, we could buy a jar of hot buttered rum mix. Your mixture sure looks a lot like what came out of that jar. Will have to try it out. Thanks.
Great video (as usual). Have you seen the fat/butter washed method? It makes a bigger batch. I think I saw it on Greg's channel - How to Drink. It's really good.
@@RobsHomeBar the butter washed rum was pretty easy and I didn't find it to be messy. Plus, when you're done, you can save the butter. It's great on pancakes!
I am sure the cream helps the butter incorporate into the drink a bit more rather than float on top. I would maybe use my hand frother to incorporate it a bit more and give it a frothy texture without having to add a whipped cream of any sort. It would have a good mouth feel that way. On my Christmas list 😁
It’s a good thing calories don’t exist during the holidays otherwise your drinks would need some kind of clickbait warning: “Nutritionists HATE him! Make your cocktails POP with this one simple trick!” ;)
As a Harry Potter fan this just made me think of butterbeer. Although I'd probably add some butterscotch liqueur too.
Ooh! Great idea, I just made caramel liqueur recently, I should try combining them!

It's a fairly new one for me but it's certainly good! Especially during the cold months!
@@RobsHomeBar Glad you found it because I could't. This is a heck of a Fall / Winter drink.

It’s definitely something nice to make ahead and keep in the freezer! Cheers!
Both versions look delicious but I'd especially love to try the heavy cream version! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you! Yea the cream version is definitely something special!
I like your recipe! Recently enjoyed a delicious hot buttered rum that added some falernum and used oat milk instead of water.
Addition of Falernum sounds intriguing! I’ll have to try it! Cheers!

Awesome! I could see that selling well!
"Looks like my poop!" haha!! Me and Odin were on the same page.
🤣🤣🤣
That cream sounds like it added a lot to the drink, definitely adding some when I make this!
Yea it’s definitely a nice touch
I heat mine up to dissolve the sugar, never occurred to me that I didn't need to. Thanks for the Shout out!
You’re welcome! I haven’t tried the chartreuse yet but I will soon! Still have a good amount of spiced butter left!
@@RobsHomeBar You're going to love it!
@@UnclePete maybe I’ll have it Friday night in the Lounge
These look great. I think I would go without the cream. Thanks for the video. Merry Christmas.
Cheers PJ! I do like the cream but they are both amazing!
Awesome video!
Thanks!
Strangely I have not seen it with cream. Definitely will be trying it soon.
It’s really nice with cream! First saw Chef John from Food Wishes recommend it

Yea I watched his a few years ago. I’ve fat washed bacon before.. found it a messy procedure haha.. I’ll probably try it again one day 😛

@@Josh_Stringer oh wow.. I never thought of that! Keeping the butter!! 😳
Wish new orleans got cold enough for this. I think I would like the cream if I drank this at night but without in the morning
Good anytime!
@@RobsHomeBar yeah but not too much heavy cream in my booze in the morning. Don't want to feel heavy at work
@@gnomestavern8285 that’s why you nap after drinking it 😜

that makes sense! frothing it could work to give it more texture! I'll definietly be experimenting more! I have a lot of spiced butter leftover!
@@RobsHomeBar you could probably use it in a coffee drink or even on toast as well. 😉
@@MrPeterbuma ooh.. the spiced coffee is happening.. I'll probably keep the rum too!

HAHAHAHA… I know! my last few videos have been calorie packed!! 🤦♂️
@@RobsHomeBar when it’s cold outside you need a little fat in your booze.
Yep think Galliano is more licorice
