Harry Potter Butter Beer Recipes

Steps:

• Combine brown sugar and water in a small saucepan; bring to a gentle boil and cook stirring often until reads 240 degrees on a candy thermometer.
• Stir in the butter, salt, vinegar and 1/4 cup of heavy cream; set aside to cool to room temperature.
• Once it is cool, stir in the extract.
• Combine 2 tablespoons of the sugar mixture and the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy cream; beat with an electric mixer 2 or 3 minutes until just thickened but not completely whipped.
• To serve, divide the brown sugar mixture between 4 tall glasses (about 1/4 cup each).
• Add 1/4 cup of cream soda to each glass, stirring to combine.
• Fill each glass nearly to the top with the additional soda.
• Spoon whipped topping over each.

Steps:

• Pour whipping cream into stand mixer bowl and start on medium speed. You can also use a traditional bowl and hand mixer.
• Add the powdered sugar one tablespoon at a time followed by the sugar, and salt.
• Once the ingredients are mixed in, increase the speed and whip to a slightly firm consistency. You don't want super stiff cream since this isn't for frosting.
• Add the butterscotch caramel topping and continue beating to desired consistency. I try to go for something a little stiffer than Cool Whip but looser than frosting.
• Spoon 1-2 teaspoons into a cold mug or glass. Pour the chilled cream soda into the glass stirring somewhat slowly with a spoon. You don't want make the two things one but stirring it will build a better head. Once the head starts to form pretty good, you can stop stirring.
• Serve cold and enjoy.
• Notes: You can put the unused cream into a plastic container and it will keep in the fridge for a few days. I have tested several brands of cream soda (IBC, Sprechers, Frostop) but the one that tastes the closest to what you will get at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter is definitely Boylan's Cream Soda. I use Mrs. Richardson's Butterscotch Caramel Topping and pink sea salt. I do know that the WWHP uses a non-dairy topping and I'm on the hunt for Rich's Whip Topping but no luck yet!
