We Love Butterbeer!
Butterbeer was made famous by the Harry Potter books! Every Harry Potter fan knows you can find this popular butterbeer recipe at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios. It is a drink served at the Three Broomsticks in Hogsmeade (and the Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley) and is described as tasting a bit like butterscotch or caramel and containing a tiny bit of alcohol (although ours is alcohol-free!) Since we love ALL things Harry Potter, we had to come up with a copycat version and we think it’s taste JUST like the real deal!
Ingredients
TOTAL TIME: 10 minutes
½ cup (4-ounces) butterscotch syrup, ice cream topping ½ tablespoon softened unsalted butter – How to Soften Butter Quickly 1 cup (8-ounces) cream soda – Make sure it’s cold heavy whipping cream – is optional and used to make homemade Whipped Cream, but canned whipped cream works as well.
How to Make Butterbeer
Beforehand freeze half of the cream soda in cubes. In a bowl, mix the melted butter with the butterscotch syrup. Add the cream soda and the frozen cream soda cubes to a blender. Blend until you get a slushy texture and pour it into the bowl along with the mixed butterscotch. Use a spoon to mix. Pour into glasses and top with Whipped Cream.
