Although dairy-free ice cream is an option for this drink made with black spiced rum, bear in mind butterscotch sauce isn’t usually dairy-free. The butterscotch sauce can be Smucker’s or Mrs Richardson’s – there are of course other brands to consider too.

As for the black spiced rum, Kraken is perhaps the best known. Black spiced rum has a richer taste than regular rum. You could sub plain dark rum for this beautiful banana rum cocktail but it’s worth using black spiced rum. It just makes it richer!

Can I Make this Banana Cocktail Ahead?

This delicious Christmas nog cocktail made with black spiced rum can be prepared ahead. Keep it refrigerated for up to 2 days and pop it in the blender again before serving since the ingredients will separate a bit. It will also be a little darker in colour since the bananas will go browner.
