Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

In a 6-quart or larger slow cooker, combine the water, dark rum, dark brown sugar, butter, cinnamon sticks, cloves, salt, and nutmeg. (5 minutes)

02

Step
4 hrs

Cover and cook on Low heat until the flavors meld and deepen, 2 to 6 hours. The longer it steeps, the richer the flavor will become. (240-360 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Before serving, give the mixture a good stir to ensure the butter and sugar are fully dissolved. (2 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

Ladle the hot buttered rum into mugs and garnish with an extra sprinkle of nutmeg or a cinnamon stick, if desired. (3 minutes)

For an even more luxurious experience, consider using browned butter. The nutty notes will add a wonderful depth of flavor.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your preference. Start with 2 cups and add more if you desire a sweeter drink.
Feel free to experiment with other spices, such as star anise or cardamom pods, for a unique twist.
This recipe can easily be doubled or tripled for larger parties. Just ensure your slow cooker is large enough.
