Warm, and richly spiced, our Hot Buttered Rum pays homage to its Tiki roots with a comforting winter sip. Made with the Hamilton West Indies Rum and our own meticulously crafted ba tter—featuring butter, brown sugar, vanilla, and a harmonious blend of spices—this drink delivers the warmth of the tropics. It's your cozy escape on the coldest of days. Hot Buttered Rum traces its roots to colonial America, where early settlers began blending Caribbean rum with hot water, spices, and butter as a warming winter tonic. The drink gained popularity in taverns during the 18th century, especially in New England, where molasses-rich rum was abundant thanks to the Triangle Trade. Over time, it evolved into the cozy, indulgent cocktail we know today—rich, spiced, and deeply nostalgic. Sipped fireside, it evokes a sense of old-world comfort and holiday cheer, a timeless remedy for cold nights and long stories. Show more
