Butter Beer

Butter beer, firstly has no alcohol involved, but you can always spice things up with vodka (please refer to my 'Take Note'). But even without the alcohol, this hot drink is really nice and comforting with the sweet flavours and holiday tastes. And to be honest this is more than just for Harry Potter fans, this is for anyone who would love a warm drink on any cold weather.

Recipe for Butter Beer

What You Need:

  • 1 Mug Milk
  • 2 Tbsp Butter
  • 2 Tbsp Sugar
  • 1 Tsp Vanilla Essence
  • 1 Dash of Ground Cinnamon

How To:

Step 1:
In a pot or deep pan, melt the butter and add the sugar. Allow the sugar to caramelise.

Step 2:
Once the sugar has caramelised, add the milk, vanilla essence and cinnamon and keep stirring.

Step 3:
As soon as the butter beer boils, remove from heat and pour into a mug.

Step:4
Serve immediately.

Note:

  • Watch out for burning the sugar/caramel on the stove.
  • Be careful when taking your first sip from the butter beer, it might be hotter than what it seems.
  • When you want to add the booze kick to it, then I suggest one or two shots vodka after the boiling & pouring into a mug. Otherwise you would boil away the alcohol.
