Sebastian Reaburn loves lemon and butter together ("they're yummy and rich"), and this drink is one of his favorite incarnations of the pairing. "It's like a hot buttered rum mixed with a lemon tart. The citrus pieces get softened by the heat and mellowed by the sugar and butter; they're delicious to nibble on at the end of the drink." Reaburn sometimes varies the Hot Buttered Lemon by adding cloves and fresh ginger, which give it "a little zing." Glassware Guide More Nonalcoholic Drinks
