What’s brewing in the Hogwarts Kitchen?
So, as you may have read, I’ve been experimenting with a recipe for a summertime butter beer.
I think I’ve got it - butter beer sodas.
What you need:
1 pint vanilla ice cream
1 container butterscotch ice cream topping (or, if you’re game, make it from scratch)
1 bottle butterscotch italian soda syrup (pretty much the same stuff they put in the fancy coffees)
1 liter soda water
Do ahead…
Allow ice cream to soften to room temperature (about 30 minutes).
Once melted, transfer ice cream to a medium sized bowl.
Fold in 3/4 cup of topping. The more “air” you can get into the mixture the better (more fizz later). Be sure to throughly combine (topping will tend to sink, and stick to, the bottom of the bowl).
Return ice cream to container (it make not all fit; if so, put in a clean plastic container) - and freeze until set.
Ready to serve:
place a small scoop of ice cream mixture into a chilled beer mug (or a glass) - drizzle syrup on top of ice cream (check specific directions for portions - and adjust to taste).
top with soda and serve!

Completely random this, but I’m also tagging you to write a blog about why you love blogging. It’s a fun little game I got from Vicki at
