Hot Butterbeer

Whether you’re a fan of Harry Potter or not, we know you’ll love this warm butterscotch drink. As is, this Harry Potter butterbeer is kid friendly. If you’re going for more of an adult vibe, add a splash of bourbon to complement the bourbon honey already in it.

Hot Butterbeer
(bourbon honey + milk + cream soda)
Serves 2
 
What you need:

For the butter beer:
1 cup whole milk
2 tablespoons salted butter
1 tablespoon Savannah Bee Company Honey (we used Bourbon Honey), plus more for drizzling
1 tablespoon brown sugar
Pinch of salt
1 cup cream soda

For the bourbon honey cream:
½ cup whipping cream
2 teaspoons Savannah Bee Company Honey (we used Bourbon Honey)

What to do:

1. Wash Up!

2. Start the butter beer: Combine the milk, butter, honey, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Heat until the butter melts and the milk is hot. Keep warm.

3. Make the bourbon honey cream: Combine the whipping cream and honey in a medium bowl. Beat until stiff peaks form.

To Serve: Pour the butter beer evenly between two glasses. Top with cream soda. Garnish with the whipped cream and drizzle with more honey.

Pro Tip: Once you add the cream soda, the drink will foam up like an ice cream soda would so be sure to use tall glasses and leave enough room for it to rise.
