Add all the spices and sugar to the soft butter and mix well. Pour or spoon the butter mixture into a container of some sort. (We like a mason jar) Store it in the fridge.
FOR THE COCKTAIL
Heat some water on the stove or in the microwave. Place 1 tbsp of the butter mixture in a mug along with the rum. Once the water is hot, pour it in with the rum and butter. Mix well.
You can drink it just like this or you can blend it up with a little handheld blender like we did. Either way is delicious!
Notes
If you dont want to go through the trouble of making the compound butter, you can just put a dollop of butter in a mug and sprinkle in a bit of each spice (go easy on the cloves) and then add the rum and the hot water. Easy if you are just making one cup.Here is Ernie's crockpot recipe:
