Mmm... that butterbeer looks fantastic.
Thank you.
We discovered an alcoholic version that tastes so much like it does at Universal (except better because its got liquor) but is so deceptively easy.
Oh, please do tell!
Yes please do tell!
Gladly.
I have 2 different versions of butterbeer, one takes a lot of time but is very yummy the other is super easy and will get you sloshed in no time!
The Easy Butterbeer
Served cold
In a glass add (in this order)
1 hardy shot of vanilla vodka (I prefer
Cupcake Vodka - Frosting)
1 Can cold Cream Soda
A good dollop of butterscotch topping (about 1Tbs)
Mix to combine (it will froth)
The next is the Universal Park's Butterbeer recipe that I have tweeked heavily and (of course) made alcoholic
Can be served cold by letting the brown sugar mixture cool or serve warm by making sure the cream soda is room temp and using the mixture after letting it sit for about 5 minutes (as long as it takes you to make the topping)
1 1/2 cup light brown sugar
4 tablespoons water
8 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar
3/4 cup heavy cream, divided
bourbon
cream soda
In a small saucepan over medium, combine the brown sugar and water. Bring to a gentle boil and cook, stirring often, until the mixture reads 240 F on a candy thermometer.
Stir in the butter, salt, vinegar, 1/4 cup bourbon and 1/4 heavy cream
In a medium bowl, combine 6 tablespoons of the brown sugar mixture, a splash of bourbon and the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Use an electric mixer to beat until soft peaks (abt 2-3 minutes)
To serve, divide the brown sugar mixture between 4 tall glasses (about 1/4 cup for each glass). Add 1/4 cup of cream soda and a shot of bourbon to each glass, then stir to combine. Fill each glass nearly to the top with additional cream soda, then spoon the whipped topping over each.
