Description

A taste of magic, this Harry Potter-inspired Butterbeer is a rich and creamy frozen drink that’s perfect for fans of all ages. With a blend of vanilla ice cream, butterscotch, and cream soda, it creates a frothy, buttery delight that will satisfy your sweet tooth. Serve this in frosted mugs topped with whipped cream for the ultimate Butterbeer experience!

Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Butterbeer:

  • 2 cups vanilla ice cream (use full-fat for the richest flavor)
  • 2 cups cream soda ice cubes (see instructions for preparation)
  • 2 teaspoons imitation butter extract
  • 1 teaspoon rum extract
  • 4 tablespoons butterscotch topping
  • 1 cup cream soda
  • 1 pinch of salt

For Garnish:

  • Whipped cream
  • Butterscotch topping (for drizzle)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cream Soda Ice Cubes
    Pour one can of cream soda into an ice cube tray and freeze for at least 4 hours. These ice cubes will later serve as the base for the Butterbeer’s frothy texture.
  2. Blend the Butterbeer Ingredients
    Once the cream soda is frozen, measure out 2 cups of the cream soda ice cubes and place them in a blender. Add the vanilla ice cream, imitation butter extract, rum extract, 1 cup of cream soda, butterscotch topping, and a pinch of salt. Blend everything together until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  3. Pour and Serve
    Pour the blended Butterbeer into your favorite frosted mugs. Make sure to leave a little room at the top for garnishes.
  4. Add Whipped Cream and Toppings
    Top each drink with a generous swirl of whipped cream, then drizzle butterscotch topping over the top for a finishing touch of sweetness.

Notes

  • To achieve frosted mugs, place your mugs in the freezer for about 30 minutes before serving.
  • If butterscotch topping isn’t available, you can substitute it with caramel sauce for a slightly different but equally delicious flavor.
  • You can use diet cream soda if you’re looking to cut back on sugar.
  • This drink is non-alcoholic and can be enjoyed by kids and adults alike.
