Harry Potter Butterbeer!

[clarine_rahne]

I am so excited for the Harry Potter movie tonight, so naturally, I made butterbeer! And it is delicious. It's sweet, rich and tastes like butterscotch.

I JUST saw a post about butterbeer the other day but I didn't read it. Now I really want some.. THANKS for the post.

The fact that you included a veganization note at the end made my day! Can't wait to try it.

[misc_negro]

yup! that sealed it for me. No dairy and vegan, Im onboard for trying that.

[merisunshine36]

right?? I immediately began thinking of where I could go buy cream soda after work.

A&W cream soda is really good if you can find it!

also... there are no vegetarians in Texas. I heard they get fried and dipped in gravy every year at the State Fair.

I've been hiding in my house all summer in case they see me.

Yup. We even have Meat Nazis that sniff out the infidel vegans and bring them to Re-education Centers, aka BBQ restaurants and steakhouses.

*straightens cap and checks reflection in highly-polished jackboots* Say, OP, where did you say you live again...? ;)

Do you think butter would work instead of margarine? I never have margarine on hand, but I really want to try this! Sounds fantastic. =)

[clarine_rahne]

Butter should work. Although, if you use unsalted butter I would add a 1/2 teaspoon of salt.

Great, thanks so much!

to reduce the foam or head when pouring, tilt the glass to the side when you pour, and pour the carbonated beverage by letting it run down along the inside of the glass.

Thanks. I usually do this, but I had one of those moments and forgot. lol
