Buttered Rum

Buttered Rum is a rich, indulgent alcoholic drink often associated with special occasions or the chilly winter months. It's traditionally made by blending dark rum with butter, sugar, and warm flavors such as allspice, nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon. The result is a smooth, creamy beverage with a depth of flavor that's both comforting and complex. This appealing concoction works wonderfully as a dessert drink or nightcap. When made at home, you also have the freedom to adjust the sweetness and spice levels to your liking. The inclusion of butter gives it a unique texture that sets it apart from other spirits.

Expiration & Storage Tips
When does Buttered Rum expire?
Buttered rum doesn't expire per se, but it's best when consumed within a few months. If it's store bought, it should last until the use-by date on the bottle, which is typically 1-2 years. Once opened, it will last around 6-8 months if stored correctly. If homemade, it should be consumed within 2-3 weeks for optimal flavor.
How do you tell if Buttered Rum is bad?
Buttered rum won't spoil in a way that's harmful, but it will start to lose its flavor and aroma over time. If the rum has a strange smell, tastes off or different than usual, it's probably past its prime. The color can also darken as it oxidizes, so look out for a darker color than usual. If it's homemade, look for the butter separating or going rancid. Homemade buttered rum will also have a sour off taste when it's not good anymore.
Tips for storing Buttered Rum to extend shelf life
• Always make sure to store your buttered rum away from light and heat, a cool, dark cupboard is perfect. • If the buttered rum is homemade, keep it in the fridge to make the butter last longer. • If it's opened, make sure to reseal it tightly after every use to prevent oxidation. • Bottles of rum should be stored upright to prevent the cork from drying out and the alcohol from oxidizing. • If you experience a rancid smell with homemade buttered rum, freeze it to prolong its life.
