Hot buttered rum is a mixed drink containing rum, butter, hot water or cider, a sweetener, and various spices (usually cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves). It is especially popular in the fall and winter and is traditionally associated with the holiday season. In the United States, the drink has a venerable history which dates back to colonial days.[1]

A notable variation is served at the Heathman Hotel, in Portland, Oregon, the so-called "Jay’s Famous Hot Buttered Rum," in which the hot drink is "creamed together with vanilla ice cream and chilled into a paste."[2]
