Tara's Hot Buttered Rum

This recipe is yummy and easy to do, especially if you use a crockpot.

2 sticks butter

2 cups light brown sugar

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon grated nutmeg

Pinch ground cloves (optional)

Pinch salt

1 bottle rum, light or dark

6 to 8 cups of water (depending on size of crockpot)

Place all ingredients in a crockpot set on high. Stir occasionally to combine the ingredients. Once butter is melted and liquid is hot, it is ready to drink. I use a soup ladle to scoop out servings and place in mugs. Sometimes I top it with whipped cream and a dash of cinnamon.
