Follow The Directions

01

Step

15 mins

Freeze 6 mugs or pint glasses until frosty, at least 15 minutes. This will keep your Butterbeer perfectly chilled.

02

Step

2 mins

In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream, cinnamon (or pumpkin pie spice), and salt.

03

Step

5 mins

Using an electric mixer, beat the mixture on medium speed until stiff peaks form. This creates a luscious whipped topping.

04

Step

3 mins

Gently fold in the butterscotch topping and lemon juice. Beat again until soft peaks form. Be careful not to overbeat.

05

Step

1 mins

For each Butterbeer, pour one can of chilled cream soda into a frosted mug.

06

Step

1 mins

Top generously with about 2 tablespoons of the butterscotch whipped topping.

07

Step

0 mins

Serve immediately and enjoy the magic!

For an extra layer of flavor, try using a high-quality butterscotch topping. The better the butterscotch, the richer the Butterbeer.
Adjust the amount of lemon juice to your preference. Start with 1 teaspoon and add more if you desire a tangier flavor.
To make a non-dairy version, use coconut whipped cream and dairy-free butterscotch topping.
For an adult twist, add a shot of butterscotch schnapps or vanilla vodka to each Butterbeer.
