Butterbeer

In Universal's Wizarding World of Harry Potter, you can find Butterbeer to quench your thirst.

It's cold, creamy & frothy.
A combination of shortbread and butterscotch.



It's on tap...or frozen.

I preferred it frozen.





It tastes a lot like cream soda.  But with a little magic.

J.K. Rowling, the author of the series, made sure it tasted "just right."  

She was asked what butterbeer tastes like, and she said: 
"I made it up. I imagine it to taste a little bit like less sickly butterscotch."


The version sold at The Wizarding World was tasted and approved by Rowling herself.






And we got to keep the mug, of course.
