Ice Cream Hot Buttered Rum Mix
Enjoy a cup of holiday cheer made with this festive Hot Buttered Rum Mix Recipe. Guaranteed to lift one’s spirit!
Instead of buying expensive Hot Buttered Rum mixes, how about making your own? Making your own will definitely taste better! The addition of ice cream makes for a delicious ultra-rich and creamy drink. Because of the ice cream, you can store the batch in the freezer and enjoy one cup at a time. Just add a dollop of the prepared batter to your mug with some hot water and rum. This delicious drink can also be enjoyed without the rum.
My mother always kept a batch of this Hot Buttered Rum mix in her freezer to use during the holiday season. What could be better on a cold winter night? It may not be low calories, but it is so good!

GREETINGS.. I BELIEVE YOU MAY HAVE A MISPRINT.. SHOULD IT BE 1 QUART INSTEAD OF 1 PINT OF ICE CREAM??
Linda Stradley
No, the recipe is correct. If the recipe was doubled, then 1 quart of vanilla ice cream would be needed.

Pint of vanilla ice cream is correct.
