Warm up with these delicious winter rum cocktails in Chicago

Oak-aged Puerto Rican rum adds a taste of vanilla to a blend of grappa, pumpkin puree, spiced pumpkin syrup and red wine in this rich drink. Grab one of the blue velvet chairs at the circular bar in front of the restaurant and savor the cocktail while nibbling fried ravioli stuffed with burrata and broccoli.

You can find plenty of tropical rum drinks at this hidden bar, but if you want something seasonal, order this strong sipper made with aged Panama rum, aged Brazilian cachaca, Michigan apples, pineapple, lemon and cinnamon. You can also warm up with hot buttered rum featuring aged Jamaican rum, baking spice, Nordic butter and hand-whipped cream.

Satisfy your sweet tooth with a blend of barrel-aged rum, horchata, dulce de leche and egg white rimmed with cinnamon sugar. Scope out the eclectic art on the walls from one of the plush seats at the bar or grab a booth and pair the drink with orange ricotta doughnuts with bourbon glaze.

The plant-filled restaurant offers summery vibes year-round with a focus on rosé, but when you need more to ward off the chill you can order a glass of warm mulled Michigan cider spiked with spiced rum or a shot of bourbon.

The sports bar’s housemade cider is available spirit free, but you can give it some extra heat with a shot of whiskey or rum. Order one and get toasty with a seat near the fireplace or use it to keep warm while hanging out at one of the picnic tables on the dog-friendly patio.

Garnished with a cinnamon stick, the creamy blend of dark rum, coffee liqueur, coconut cream, coconut milk and banana liquor is perfect for sipping by the bar’s fireplace and perusing one of the books from their free library.

The seasons blend together in this drink, a mix of aged and young rums, pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, coconut, pineapple, lime and nutmeg served in a young Thai coconut. The gorgeous riverfront views add to the chill vibes.

If you need something strong after bracing the howling winds, order this warm drink made with Scotch and dark rum as well as a liqueur made from Scotch, honey and herbs. Then settle in to enjoy the restaurant’s spectacular eight-course tasting menu or order hearty dishes like a roasted half chicken with giardiniera a la carte.
