There are actually six types of Butterbeer you can get at Universal Orlando’s Wizarding World. Butterbeer comes as hot, cold/regular, frozen drinks, fudge, ice cream, and potted cream. We have three of these recipes you can make at home.
Three Butterbeer Recipes From Universal Orlando You Ca

This was such an easy recipe and if you have made Butterbeer before or are a baker you may have most of these ingredients at home. It was a hit with everyone in the family and helped bring some Harry Potter fun home.
2. Regular/Cold Butterbeer
Regular Butterbeer is my favorite. A lot of people go for frozen but I just love the flavor. Either way they are a delicious staple of the Wizarding World.
Ingredients:
- 1/3 cup butterscotch syrup
- 1-liter vanilla cream soda, chilled
- 1 cup heavy cream
- ¼ tsp caramel extract
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
Instructions:
- cream soda with caramel extract and butterscotch syrup in bowl. Mix well with spoon. Set aside.
- In the mixer, with whisk attachment, whip the heavy cream until it begins to form peaks.
- Gently fold in the melted butter, then vanilla extract, followed by the powdered sugar. Whip until evenly dispersed.
- Pour the cream soda mixture into a clear mug or glass. Top with the cream topping. Serve and enjoy!
3. Hot Butterbeer
Unfortunately, this delicious Butterbeer beverage is sold seasonally in Orlando. But now you can make it at home and enjoy it all year!
Ingredients:
- 1 Liter of Cream Soda
