EditTips

  • The hot butterbeer method requires a large bowl, or it will spill everywhere. Even a small amount will fizz to about 3 times its original height.
  • Add whipped cream to the frozen butterbeer for an decorative and flavorful touch.
  • If desired, add an ounce of rum to any of these recipes for an adult treat.
