*Warning*
This recipe is full of things that are not great for you in excess that taste delicious together. I will make no health claims, but I will anecdotally tell you that when I feel myself getting the chills and possibly coming down with something, a hot buttered rum tends to chase it off. Use judiciously.
In all seriousness, our highs this week are barely in the positive single digits. The world is covered with a blanket of sparkling icy snow, and school has been cancelled because wind chills today are supposed to hit -30. So the kids and I are bundling up and heading over to have a no-school playdate with friends. And, well, mom friends need a little fun and warmth too, so I'm bringing the fixings for hot buttered rum!
