Homemade Butterbeer
Inspired by Harry Potter [1]
Notes
The recipe only makes enough for one, but it can easily be made in large batches and served at Halloween [2] parties. I recommend serving the hot version in a slow cooker so it stays warm.
Ingredients
- 12 ounces pumpkin ale, like Uinta [3]
3 to 4 tablespoons butterscotch sauce [4], preferably homemade
Directions
- To make hot Butterbeer: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine beer and 3 to 4 tablespoons butterscotch sauce. Whisk occasionally, and cook until beer just begins to boil. Taste, and adjust with more butterscotch if necessary. Transfer to a mug.
- To make cold Butterbeer: Pour cold beer into a blender. As blender is running, carefully pour butterscotch in a steady stream. Blend until just combined. Avoid overblending (which can flatten the beer). Taste, and blend with more butterscotch if necessary. Transfer to a mug.
