Looking for a drink that’s both soothing and flavourful, during nippy evenings? Tulleeho’s foamed hot buttered rum is a clean, well-balanced take on a winter classic, designed to banish the chills.
The drink features a dark rum base—ideally Jamaican or Demerara—that adds a deep molasses note. It also adds warmth and a sharp aftertaste. Brown sugar syrup adds gentle sweetness and rounds off the drink while vanilla enriches the mix without overpowering the flavours.
The recipe stands out for its spiced butter base. Unsalted butter is blended with brown sugar,
cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, and a pinch of salt. This mix gives the drink its signature richness and subtle spice. The butter is used sparingly to keep the drink light. It’s finished with a foam made from warm milk and the spiced butter mix.
The result: a hot buttered
rum that’s aromatic, smooth, and comforting, with creamy mouthfeel, gentle sweetness, and warming spice—perfect to sip on as the temperature dips.
