What is the best rum for hot buttered rum drink? ›

The Demerara rums from El Dorado work wonders, as does a robust Jamaican rum like Coruba, or something dark and mellow like Zaya or Zacapa. This recipe makes enough batter for several drinks and keeps well in the fridge.

While both are hot, alcoholic beverages, their ingredients differ. Tom and Jerrys are also often made with rum, though they can also be made with whiskey or vodka. Both are also spiced. However, a batter instead of butter (see what we did there?) is used to make a Tom and Jerry rich and creamy.

Issac: A dark rum would go well with hot chocolate. As for recommendations for someone who is new to rums, Don Q Anejo wins hands down as the best buy considering flavor and price.

Chocolate to pair with rum: which is the best? Dark chocolate is the best accompaniment to aged rums, while milk chocolate or gianduia are also suitable for younger rums. In general, the older the rum, the more the cocoa percentage must increase.

White rum: Also known as light rum, white rum is the most common type of rum used in a classic Rum and co*ke. White rums generally have a light sweetness and are an agreeable, easy-to-drink choice.

Light rum is popular in this drink (like Bacardi), but dark rums can also be used. It is finished off with a cola (Coca-Cola is the soda of choice) and a lime wedge.

Hot buttered rum is a favorite winter drink, and it's irresistible. It is both sweet and warm, which is just the kind of comfort you want on the coldest days of the year.

Known by many names around the world – including "Dark n' Stormy" in Bermuda, "Gangsters' Paradise Cooler" in Jamaica, and even simply as "Booze Soda" in some parts of the United States – this drink packs a powerful punch with its perfectly-balanced blend of sweet-and-sour flavors.

I can recommend Bacardi Oakheart for use in fruit cake, rum cake, etc. it has many fine flavors that will enhance the baked items. You should probably avoid clear, white rums for this purpose. Rums that have richer flavor profiles generally add more depth to baking recipes.

Which alcohol is best with chocolate? ›

Pairing Chocolate with Liquor

Though a few spirits fall out of these categories, it's generally accepted that the six types of distilled spirits are: brandy, gin, rum, tequila, vodka, and whiskey. Each pairs particularly well with chocolate, but the pairings depend on the blend in question.

Aged rum, he says, lends caramel notes to dishes, while white rums can give a pleasing alcohol bite, and spiced rum is a no-brainer for cakes. “When you're working with hearty proteins like short ribs or beef that you plan on stewing for a long time, you can treat rum just like you would wine,” he says.

Experience tells us that aged rums combine very well with chocolates that have intense flavors thanks to a high percentage of cocoa, generally around 80%. Rums such as Diplomático Reserva Exclusiva has such a smooth and delicious taste that combines particularly well with the intensity and bitterness of the best cocoa.

Mix together rum, vodka, gin, tequila and triple sec to make this classic co*cktail. Serve with plenty of ice.

Spices: Grab cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves to spice up the butter mixture. Rum: We loved the flavor of spiced rum in this drink. Dark rum would also work well. Or, make the drink with bourbon or whiskey.

It's good over just about anything--YUM!! Use a good dark rum such as Myers or Captain Morgan Spiced Rum, and don't skip the fresh squeezed lime juice, which makes this sauce pop! I hope you enjoy!"

Of all the rums we tried for this recipe, we liked Myers's best. But Oronoco, a new white rum from Brazil, also made a beautifully balanced drink.
