Our favorite young wizard celebrates a birthday this month on July 31st!
To celebrate we made a frosty twist on the classic beverage from the books, Harry Potter Frozen Butterbeer.
What is Butterbeer in Harry Potter?
Butterbeer was a popular wizarding beverage described as tasting “a little bit like less-sickly butterscotch”.
It was served at numerous locations in the wizarding world and had a very slight alcoholic content.
Students of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry would often buy it when visiting Hogsmeade.

Start by adding ice cream, ice cubes, and cream soda to a blender.
Add in creamy peanut butter and blend until smooth.
This makes enough for one large milkshake mug or glass.
I like to make homemade whipped cream with brown sugar, vanilla, and heavy cream.
Pour into glass and top with whipped cream, drizzle with caramel or butterscotch, and a straw!
My silly Harry Potter fans loved their frozen treat!
For the past few years we have been lucky enough to attend a fun Harry Potter Birthday Bash at our local Army Library at Ft Leonardwood, MO.
We never say no to a good photo op!
Games and crafts galore! We still have the flag banner on display at home!
I can see my two daughters loving this recipe! They are huge Harry Potter Fans
I can see that kids would love this (wouldn’t mind having a slurp myself!), but…..any suggestions on a replacement for peanut butter? Got one with allergies.
Yes! The original recipe was a couple tbsp of butterscotch but I had trouble finding it so I switched to peanut butter. Or you can leave it out completely and just top with caramel!

Looks yummy, I will show the hubby – he will surely like this (and he also like to mix stuff) 🙂
OMG, my grown kids would go crazy over this, they love anything Harry Potter but I’m sure they would really enjoy this frozen butterbeer hogwarts drink. Looks so delicious!
So fun to make this drink at home! Very creative and a neat idea. I’m sure my kids would enjoy this.
