'Tis the Season...

Hot Buttered Rum (zero carb grams)
5 oz. boiling water
1/4 oz. Monin Sugar Free Sweetener
3/4 oz. DaVinci Sugar Free Caramel Syrup
Pat of butter
ground cinnamon and cloves (one or two shakes - to taste)
1½ oz. gold or dark rum

Shake spices into mug. Pour in boiling water. Add other ingredients and stir.

I found the caramel syrup a surprisingly good sub for the flavor of brown sugar. Now, I can enjoy one of my longtime favorite cold-weather drinks, sans carbs.

"The rum's the thing..."
