I made this last year for a holiday party & everyone loved it--I'm so glad it's still here, I've been sick for 3 days & nothing sounds good--except for this! Scaling it down to 4 servings & will share with my husband (of course) and praying for a good, deep sleep! Thank you Linda for posting the recipe and the helpful comments as well.

I made this over the holidays and it was a hit. I do think next time I will cut down on the brown sugar since it seemed a bit to sweet. I put the bottle rum on the side and let everyone add their desired amount. With a dollop of redi whip and a sprinkle of nutmeg this was the perfect holiday treat.

Great recipe, especially on a cold day. It really does taste like a liquid cinammon roll with a kick. Follow the advice to get the crock pot very hot to ensure the butter melts.

This is a great recipe! I melted the butter and mixed it with the brown sugar before adding the rest of the ingredients. I had no problem with the oily film other reviewers mentioned.

Awesome recipe! I made it for NYE & everyone loved it, quite a hit! Easy too, just throw everything in a crockpot, forget about it and when its time to serve its ready to go. Also good if refigerated & reheated (the entire batch of course).

Absolutely delish! I made Xmas eve to go along with dessert. Although recipe did had weird skin that needed to be fished out... I made with splenda brown sugar, bacardi and light cool whip to make it a little less damaging to waistline!

Instead of doing this in the slow cooker, I just heated it up on the stove and then let it simmer on low. We didn't drink it all in one night, but it kept well for a few days. All you had to do was re-heat it. It was a tiny bit of an acquired taste for me, but now I love it.

All I can say is WOW! Loved this! I made this for New Years Day in my crock pot and couldn't stop drinking this! It is very rich, which is what you'd expect from such a drink. I cooked mine on on high for about 2-2.5 hours and it was perfect. The butter was melted and simply glistened on the top. The only changes I made was the cooking time/heat (as noted) and I added one extra whole clove and an extra cinnamon stick (b/c I had the short ones on hand). I also added Captain Morgan Spiced Rum which I would definitely use again. Be careful not to add the rum until the last minute otherwise the alcohol will cook off. I did serve it with whipped cream and a sprinkle of nutmeg and it was delicious! I stored my leftovers in a pitcher in the fridge and warmed each glass in the microwave for about 30 seconds the next day and although the alcohol was weak by then, the flavor was all still there. I will definitely make this again for a winter party! Thanks for sharing this recipe!

I made this for new years eve and it turned out wonderfully. I added the captains to each glass instead of in the crockpot so that it wouldn't turn out too strong. I cooked it on high for 4 hours and it was great, there is butter in the drink obviously but it's not gross and slimey like some reviewers say. I also liked how sweet it was, it was perfect for my family, I guess we have a sweet tooth. I will make this again next year around the holidays.

WOW! I just did a test run of this before I serve it on Christmas day. I did a 1/2 recipe, except I only used 1/4 of rum. I also used a stove top pan for speed and kept it just below a simmer for 2 hours. I used spiced rum since it's all I had. I can't wait to put it in the crockpot tomorrow- YUM!!!

THE BEST! I had lots of requests for the recipe. I add my rum individually in the mug instead of the crock pot. That way everyone can have a glass - kids and adults. Absolutely awesome. I did add an extra quart of water to lessen the sweetness.

We tried this tonight and it was good, but way too sweet. Next time we'll cut the sugar in half. Tasty, though.

i made this and it smelled delicous all day, but when the time came and we actually had some, it was kinda mediciny tasting and the butter as other have said, floated to the top and made my lips feel all weird. It was very unpleasing. And It Wasnt because my crock pot wasn't hot enough because i had it simmering for 12 hours. I will not make this again, i made it, me and my hubby took 2 sips, and threw it out and ended up have rum and coke instead.

I made this on Halloween because we were going to be sitting outside around a fire and I wanted a warm cocktail.It was awesome.I followed it exactly and made a huge crockpot of it.At first I thought I made way too much and would have leftovers, but erverybody kept refilling their mugs and saying they loved it.Not for the calorie conscious though!
