Volcano House Hot Buttered Rum

The Volcano House Hot Buttered Rum is a 50’s classic, hailing from Hawaii’s Volcano House Hotel. It’s a beautiful upgrade to a standard Hot Buttered Rum, with the unusual addition of maraschino providing just a touch of funk, and a tea base offering a plethora of interesting spices and tannins. It’s great with any black tea, but we especially love it with a bergamot-forward blend like Earl Grey.

Add all ingredients (except the tea and butter) to a heatproof glass. Top with the tea, stir, and float the pat of butter on top. Garnish with a wide strip of lemon peel, studded with cloves.
