Warm the water and milk until lukewarm. The liquid should be lukewarm to ensure the yeast activates properly. In a small bowl, dissolve the sugar and yeast in the lukewarm water, then let it rest for 5-10 minutes until foamy.
Sift the flour into a large bowl, add the salt, and mix well. Pour in the yeast mixture, then add the butter. Knead the dough well until it is smooth and elastic. If necessary, add a little water to prevent it from being too dry.
Place the dough in a warm place, covered, to rest for 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
Once the dough has risen, turn it out onto a work surface and divide it into 8-10 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a long rope, then shape them into pretzels.
Place the pretzels on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Before putting them in the oven, brush them with a little water and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Bake the pretzels for 20-25 minutes, until they are golden brown and fragrant.
Once baked, let them cool slightly. Soak the raisins in rum for a short time, then sprinkle them over the pretzels.
Serve the rum raisin pretzels fresh to enjoy the perfect combination of rum and soft dough.
