Butterbeer Sauce | Harry Potter
I was brainstorming butterbeer and thinking, what do I make next? There’s butterbeer cupcakes, butterbeer waffles, butterbeer milkshakes, butterbeer cake, etc etc. And then I thought, instead of creating a gazillion butterbeer recipes, how about I create a butterbeer sauce so you can upgrade ANYTHING to be butterbeer flavoured?
Life. Complete.
So, because there’s two different types of butterbeer, the 1500’s version Alcoholic Butterbeer and theWizarding World Butterbeer [non alcoholic] version, there will be two versions in the end. This version, which happens to be my favourite out of the two, is based off of the alcoholic flavoured butterbeer.
