Butterbeer

Today we are continuing with the switched up template, and will be begining this recipe with an introduction.

Butterbeer, is perhaps one of the most famous recipes from the HP universe. It is one many people have tried to recreate, and I am postive it is a recipe most of us wish to try.

So the SoMe team has done some research and are delighted to be bring you our take on this tasty drink.

Butterbeer or Butterscotch Drink

Ingredients:
3 tbsp salted butter
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 tbsp of butterscotch syrup (You will be making this)
Your choice of Cream Soda, Root beer or another similar fizzy drink
 

Recipe:

In a small saucepan, melt salted butter. Slowly stir in the brown sugar and heat until sugar has dissolved. This should form a smooth caramel-like mixture.
Now that you have your very own butterscotch sauce, it's time for the next step.
Slowly add in 1/4 cup of the heavy cream, mix until fully combine.
Next add in the vanilla extract, and stir in. Then remove from the heat, and leave to cool.
Put the remaining heavy cream into a bowl, and add in 2tbsp of the syrup. Whip until soft peaks form. (You can use a hand whisk, milk frother or another electrical applicance to save yourself sometime.)
To assemble the drink, chose a fancy glass and add syrup to the bottom. Pour in your choice of fizzy/soda and then top with the whipped cream.
