Simply simmer equal parts rum, butter and brown sugar together with some cinnamon, nutmeg and cloves. If you have a wood-burning stove, you can even put the pot on top and let it heat up naturally, sending Christmas-y scents all throughout the house.
The caramel-y concoction quickly hardens when it hits a cold scoop, making this old-fashioned ice cream pick an awesomely boozy upgrade to our childhood fave. It's a perfectly cool treat whether it's December, January, June or July.
So go on, drink to your health. Or to a new year, or winter vacation. Or just to a tasty treat that warms the heart and brings a smile to the faces of your loved ones.
How does your family normally celebrate in the time between Christmas and New Year's Eve?
