When we were in Universal Orlando the kids wanted souvenirs, and all I wanted was more Frozen Butterbeer. It’s that good!
After trying both frozen Butter Beer and regular ButterBeer, we all preferred the frozen variety.
The texture is like a slurpee, it’s the best on a hot day.
What you need to make Frozen Butter Beer:
- 2 2 liters Cream Soda (your favorite brand)
- 1 container whipping cream
- 1 jar Butterscotch ice cream topping
How to make the Frozen Butter Beer recipe:
- Freeze the Soda: Start with one of the 2 liters of cream soda and freeze small portions of it in plastic cups. You can also use ice cube trays as well, whatever you have. Freeze the soda for a few hours, or overnight.
- Whip the Cream: With a stand mixer or hand mixer whip the whipped cream. Add a few tablespoons of the butterscotch topping to flavor the whipped cream as you whip. Do not over whip the cream. It should look and feel light, not thick and heavy. Set the whipped cream aside.
- Blend it up: Blend the frozen cream soda with some of the cream soda that is not frozen for an icy or slush texture. Add more of the butterscotch topping into the blended cream soda while you blend.
- Top it with Whipped Cream: To serve, pour the blended slush mixture into a cup and top with the butterscotch flavored whip cream. Enjoy!
