Today is National Hot Buttered Rum Day. Lordy, there's a day for everything, it seems. In general, I don't enjoy alcohol very much, but on a cold winter's night, a hot spiked beverage can be glorious. Throw in a little vanilla ice cream, and it's heavenly. I found this recipe for Creamy Hot Buttered Rum on the blog Delightful E Made. I will definitely be making this at my house this weekend.
While doing a little research, I discovered that Yankee Candle makes a hot buttered rum version. I bet it smells wonderful.
There is also a string band called Hot Buttered Rum. I listened to a few of their songs, and they're pretty good. Sort of a country/bluegrass sound.
Whether you celebrate with a drink, a candle or some music, happy Hot Buttered Rum day!
And finally, a little love for my team since they're playing in the NFC Championship game tomorrow. Go Seahawks!
While my stomach wouldn't agree with drinking hot buttered rum, I love the smell...that candle would be on all the time. I love 'warm' scents. Go Seahawks! We are HUGE fans up here!
ReplyDeleteCould you believe that win today? We're still in shock.
DeleteOoh! This sounds wonderful! I'm going to try it. The teetotaller version . ..
ReplyDeleteI'm usually a teetotaller too, but I made it with the rum today and it was very good!
DeleteI'm definitely going to try this tomorrow, thank you for making my Sunday so delicious! :)
ReplyDeleteHope it was great!
DeleteI love how you have 3 versions of hot buttered rum here. Very clever Lana! And I'm pinning this recipe for a hot toddy!
ReplyDeleteI tried it today and it was VERY good!
DeleteMmm.. virgin drinks for me but I can get behind all of it! And Yankee Candle headquarters are near my house. Sometimes you can smell the candles from the highway when they're making them.
ReplyDeleteYankee Candle down the road? How cool is that!
DeleteA mug of hot buttered rum is perfect on a snowy cold day! Thanks for sharing the recipe and Go Seahawks!
