Can’t make it to one of these festivals or too young to attend? Traditional Butterbeer is nothing more than butterscotch syrup, vanilla ice cream, and cream soda depending on the recipe you choose — and it only takes a few minutes to make!
There are many different versions of the drink, though. Check out the Butterbeer recipes closest to what you’d find in Hogsmeade. And if you’re lucky enough to snag tickets to one of these events, enjoy a drink on our behalf. Have fun!
