Butterbeer {A Recipe}

I know, I know...I'm late to the Harry Potter party. Like way late, but it's okay because my husband and I are both sharing in all the joys of Harry Potter together. I read all the Harry Potter books while I was pregnant {read about that here} and my husband decided to start reading them shortly after Aiden came along. We were both new to the Harry Potter craze.

As Drew finishes each book, we watch the movie together and then talk about what they left out from the book. Haha. He just finished the 5th book and I decided we needed to make our Harry Potter movie nights a little more exciting by trying out a Butterbeer recipe. {Thanks Lauren for the inspiration and website!} I used this website and tested out recipe #5. We made the alcoholic version, but there are plenty of recipes on this site that are alcohol free. I haven't had the real stuff via Universal, but I enjoyed this drink immensely and so did my husband!

Ingredients: {Makes enough for 1 drink}
1 oz. Butterscotch Schnopps
1 oz. Vanilla Vodka
6 oz. Cream Soda {We used Jones}
Large Spoonful of Marshmallow Fluff

Instructions:
1.) In a tumbler mix ice, Butterscotch Schnopps, Vanilla Vodka and Cream soda
2.) Shake and Pour into a frozen mug
3.) Whisk together marshmallow fluff and a little splash of Butterscotch Schnopps
4.) Top drink with Marshmallow fluff concoction
5.) Cheers!

I'm so excited to compare this version to the REAL THING this summer. That's right...we have plans to take a day trip to Universal while we are in Florida this summer! Ah!

And did you know that Starbucks has a "secret" menu? I'm dying to try their Butterbeer Frappuccino!
