Butterbeer hot chocolate is now a thing and we might as well be in Hogwarts

Keeley Ryan

It will make you feel like you’re in the Three Broomsticks.

Muggles can now create their very own taste of Hogwarts – and we couldn’t be more excited.

While we were delighted to hear all about the Harry Potter-inspired secret Starbucks menu last month, we felt like there was one thing missing: hot chocolate.

With the temperatures getting colder still, there’s nothing better than to snuggle up with a cosy mug of cocoa and switch on a movie.

And what could be more enchanting than a Harry Potter-inspired hot chocolate?

We reckon Harry, Ron and Hermione would definitely approve.

You’ll need….

  • 4 cups of half and half cream
  • 2 cups of milk
  • 1 cup of butterscotch chips, plus more for garnish
  • 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons of caramel sauce, plus more for garnish
  • 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract
  • Whipped cream

Here’s how to get started….

  1. Combine half and half, and milk in a medium saucepan.
  2. Let milk mixture start to hear up on a medium heat.
  3. After about 2 minutes, add butterscotch chips, white chocolate chips, vanilla, and caramel.
  4. Keep stirring mixture slowly, until all chocolate chips, and butterscotch chips have melted, and the hot chocolate is warmed up.
  5. Do not bring to a boil.
  6. As soon as the chips are all melted, you are good to go.
  7. Pour Butterbeer Hot Chocolate into mugs. Top it with whipped cream, caramel sauce, and a few butterscotch chips for something really enchanting.
