Tonight we watched the first installation of the Deathly Hallows and finally tried our brew. I have to say that I think it is exactly what butterbeer is like. It is refreshing but warming and oh-so tasty.
It would be the perfect drink to enjoy while having a conversation with your favorite Potter-verse character...if J.K. Rowling could have stopped killing them off. (Ahem, Remus.)
But I digress. :P
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon water
3 tablespoons butter
3 shots of rum
cream
cream soda
pumpkin pie spice
Mixin' It Up:
In a small sauce pan add brown sugar and water. Cook on medium heat until sugar dissolves and add butter until it has melted, stirring constantly.
In each pint glass add a shot of the rum, about four tablespoons of the brown sugar/butter mixture, fill with cream soda, and top off with a little cream and a pinch of pumpkin pie spice. Stir well and serve.
Now go study for Potions class.

I thought you were a Sirius Black fan. That sounds good except for the rum :(
I sort of picture it kinda like cream soda eggnog
I am. Tonks too. I also was sad about Fred Weasley. And Dobby. The books were a sad state of affairs.
You can totally leave out the rum and it would be like a cream soda butterscotch-y froth drink. Also, I had to addput in the pumpkin spice, gave it that something extra...just seems like that kind of drink to me! Play around with it- maybe with ice cream like a root beer float?
