For the needs of this recipe, we’re making a model of Butterbeer that could be very shut to what’s served within the parks.

For the caramel syrup, I used a transparent syrup as a substitute of a sauce. However if you want to shorten your grocery record, you should utilize the caramel sauce for each.

In my view, probably the most scrumptious and necessary a part of this recipe is the topping! In a separate glass, mix half and half and caramel sauce.

Subsequent, use a milk frother to froth your cream till the consistency is someplace between cream and whipped cream. When it turns into just a little thicker and extra foamy, you’ll comprehend it’s the right consistency in your beverage.
