Harry Potter Butterbeer Latte
This Butterbeer Latte Recipe is a must-try for all of my Harry Potter fans. Coffee combines with the rich sweet flavor of homemade butterbeer! Step into the Three Broomsticks with this classic wizard flavor.
Servings 1 latte + Extra Syrup
Ingredients
Butterscotch Coffee Syrup:
- 1/2 cup water + 1 tablespoon divided
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
Coffee
- 2 oz espresso or 1/4 strong brewed coffee or cold brew
- 1/4 cup milk of choice
Instructions
Syrup:
- Combine the 1/2 cup water and 1/2 cup granulated sugar into a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and cook 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until the sugar has dissolved. Remove from the heat.
- Add the brown sugar, 1 tablespoon water, salt and butter to a tall pot. Cook on medium heat, stirring once, until the butter melts and the sugar dissolves. Continue to simmer until the sauce reaches 300 degrees.
- Carefully whisk in 1/2 of the simple syrup that was set aside, being sure to whisk as you add. This will foam and bubble so be careful not to burn yourself.
- Once that is combined, add the remaining syrup and cook 1 additional minute, or until the bubbles calm and the mixture melts into a liquid.
Coffee:
- Add 1-2 tablespoons of dolce syrup to a cup.
- Top with coffee or espresso.
- Add steamed milk, whipped cream, and caramel drizzle.
Notes
How to make this an iced coffee:
- Fill one tall glass with ice.
- Add 1-2 tablespoons of dolce syrup to the cup.
- Pour the milk over the ice and syrup.
- Top with coffee or espresso, mix, and enjoy.
