Warm & Cozy Buttered Rum Coffee
It's hot. It has butter and rum. And it'll be your new favorite coffee drink.

Rich and comforting, hot buttered rum coffee is festively spiced and perfect for the holidays (or any cold day). This drink is simple to make and it's a wonderful way to toast the season.
A tasty blend of ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, and rum is whisked into your favorite Harry & David Coffee to create an after-dinner drink that will win over even the biggest grinch.
To make this hot buttered rum coffee, you’ll whip together butter, spices, and brown sugar. The butter blend can be made up to a week in advance. But a word of warning: this butter blend is fabulous on toast…or a spoon, so be sure to hide it from your guests!
Just before serving, add a dollop or two to a coffee mug and top with rum. Fill your mug with your favorite Harry & David coffee — I love the crème brûlée coffee flavor — and whisk the ingredients together. Then top with whipped cream. Sprinkle with nutmeg and serve. This is how you savor the holidays!
