Let the neverending hijinx at the Dell’Aringa household continue. Amanda entered a little art contest and took third place with this drawing, and so we decided to give her a little reward. She had been begging us to make Butterbeer for awhile, so we got the ingredients and whipped up a batch! (For the uninitiated, Butterbeer is a special, sugary treat of a drink that the kids in the Harry Potter books love to get.) Amanda of course found the “official” recipe and we got to work.
I was skeptical about what we might end up with, but wow – it was delicious! Basically it tastes like you are drinking a butterscotch candy float. The whipped cream on the top is even flavored that way. I could only finish half a glass, it was so sweet. The girls were ecstatic, of course, and saved what they couldn’t drink for tomorrow.
