Spiced Coffee with Rum Recipe
As the crisp fall air starts to settle in and Halloween creeps around the corner, there’s nothing quite like warming up with a hot coffee laced with rum. And if you’re looking to make a spooky statement, imagine serving it in a cauldron, with a few cobwebs hanging around for dramatic effect! It’s the perfect potion for those chilly October nights.
But let’s be real—this isn’t just a Halloween treat. On any frosty fall evening, when you step in from the cold and are craving something to thaw you out, a cup of coffee with a dash of rum is a quick and cozy fix.
Now, when it comes to choosing the perfect rum, I usually lean towards rich, warming notes. While I’ve enjoyed Goslings Black Seal Rum in the past for its fruitcake and spice vibe, and used it for this recipe as well, my heart (and taste buds) now belong to The Kraken Black Spiced Rum. With its bold flavors of vanilla, cinnamon, and clove, it’s a match made in autumn heaven.
Cheers to spooky season, cozy nights, and the perfect fall brew! Happy Halloween! 🎃
Ingredients you need
- Coffee, strong – use your favorite brewing method
- Dark rum – I went with Goslings Black Seal Rum, but if you really want to amp up those spooky vibes, The Kraken Black Spiced Rum is a fantastic choice. A spiced rum adds that extra layer of flavor to make this drink irresistible!
- Sweetened whipped cream
- Cocoa for dusting
How To Make Hot Coffee with Rum
