You might consider Butterbeers to be just for kids, but adults love them too. My family is completely in love with this Butterbeer because the flavors complement each other perfectly and are in harmony. Even if you’re not a fan of Harry Potter, you won’t want to miss out on this Butterbeer recipe. If you enjoy butterscotch in any form, you’re sure to love it!
This is an ideal drink to prepare for a gathering and you can make each component separately. Keep each part of the drink in the refrigerator separately until it’s time to serve the chilled beverage.
When possible, store the Butterbeer separately from the topping to keep its freshness. The drink can last up to two weeks in the refrigerator. The whipped topping will stay fresh for about three days. Store them in separate airtight containers in the refrigerator. Wait until you’re ready to drink to assemble the Butterbeer and enjoy its delicious flavors.
