How to Make Harry Potter’s Pumpkin Butterbeer

|

This past summer, my daughter and I visited the Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios for the first time. Somewhere between the delicious food and the amazing rides, she turned into a full-fledged Potter fan – so today, we are celebrating with an ice cold glass of Harry Potter’s Pumpkin Butterbeer!

Copycat Pumpkin Butterbeer from the Wizarding World of Harry Potter

This Pumpkin Butterbeer is lip-smackingly smooth, with a unique flavor that your guests will keep sipping – trying to put their fingers on the delicious combination dancing on their tongues.

The butterbeer recipe at Universal Studios was developed by top Florida chefs and is top-secret so trying to recreate one from memory was a fun experiment for my daughter and I to take on. It was like we were hosting our very own potions lab, with lots of stirring, sipping and experimentation!

While I think the version at Universal Studios doesn’t have apple cider or pumpkin, we really liked our version and it almost seemed more authentic to the original books to include those fall flavors.

Of course, you can leave out the pumpkin puree – it just adds an earthiness and helps mellow out the sweet flavor – or even the apple cider, which I think makes the drink even more refreshing.

This copycat Pumpkin Butterbeer is delicious, whether served hot or cold, and you can top it with a bit of whipped cream if you desire. The whipped cream at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter seems to have some caramel or butterscotch topping whipped in for a sweeter flavor so definitely give that a try if you’re going to go the extra step.

Either way, you’re in for a magical treat!
