Spice Hunter Winter Sippers Hot Buttered Rum Tin, 5.0 Ounce

This stuff is an excellent holiday libation. The only problem is it’s only available during the holidays. Buy two.

Spice Hunters Hot Buttered Rum mix is made by a local firm located about 12 miles south of us , "down the grade "- We are 1,800 ft above sea level, San Luis Obispo is approx 100 ft above sea level, and, perhaps that is one reason why they mostly have rather wimpy tastes![As well: rather left wing social restrictions...always fighting the verve of us M.O.R./Right Wing Federalist thinkers, and, us, a bit too right of the roasted garlic and Extra Virgin olive oil tastes, as well as SLO always fighting the Cal Poly student activity...oh well, back to the SH-HBR mix: To All " youse guy's" out there, who grew up with REAL Hot Buttered Rum, yeah, East Coast Style, aka as the "13 states/colonial real HBR", also realize that the BEST HBR mix comes from Trader Vic's, [God Bless 'em], which is only available during the "frosty months".Making HotButteredRum from scratch is fun, but a very time consuming enterprise...Thusly, I have used this product, 2 tbsp, along with 1-2 TBSP of Collins HBR mix, with [ALWAYS] Meyers Jamaican run, or Pussers, or one of the other hard to find Dark Jamaican Rum , AND Real butter [some of the best available her are from France [Try the PRESIDENT Brand butter w/sea salt crystals-from NORMANDY], and, butter from Ireland, [Trader Joe's-Thanks TJ], from various New England and Wisconsin areas, and several from right here in the land of "fruits and nuts" [AKA California, or, as Arnold mumbles, Kali-Forrniaaa.]. I also add Nutmeg, Ginger, Cinnamon and Cardamom. [Mouth watering, ehh?]Growing up in the New York City area, my extended family [including aunts and uncles here in the US, as well as several A/U from Ireland/Scotland, Germany, Canada, Italy and...XXXXCuba}, presented the best available spirits during the Christmas season.The rum, I remember, to be exotic dark rums from every part of the Caribbean, including, Jamaica, Cuba, Puerto Rico, St. John [as well as several of the other small island states therein],and South American states at the general meridian of the above countries...Hot buttered rum is sorta-kinda an elixer...AND, I enjoy HBR anytime I hanker to delve into the varied depths of flavors available with this elixir. [OK, also the slight BUZZ, take].Thank you Spice Hunter, for one of the basic elements available to me to prepare HBR, Hey SH, perhaps you might develop a similar jarred HBR mix, ala trader Joes concoction?Enjoy fellow Amazoni clan members.regards, as ever,Robert P. von Fischbach, Atascadero, California.

I was a bit skittish to buy this because I usually see it refrigerated. But I was pleasantly surprised- delicious and spicy. It does go quickly though. The next time i buy, I will look for a larger size.

I'd been trying to find this mix at a decent price ever since the holidays passed. This is my favorite mix for my favorite cold-night drink and, let's face it, we're not out of cold nights yet.

I love this! The packets are more convenient and portable. I'll order those next.

Like this just with hot milk. Makes a nice bedtime drink.

Perfect, Thanks!

yummy!
