Harry Potter Butterbeer

Ingredients:

For butterbeer:

1c. packed light brown sugar

2 Tbsp. water

6 Tbsp butter

1/2 tsp. salt

1/2 tsp. apple cider vinegar

1/4 c. heavy whipping cream

4 12 oz. bottle root beer

For whipped cream:

2 Tbsp. brown sugar

1/2 c. heavy whipping cream

Directions:

• Combine brown sugar and water and bring to a boil.
• Cook until reaches 240 degrees.
• Add butter, salt, vinegar and cream.
• Stir until combined and butter is melted.
• Let cool to room temp.
• With mixer, whip cream and brown sugar for about 3 minutes until thick.

To assemble:

• Put sauce in bottom of the glass (I put a little less than 1/4 c.- next time I might use more because Matt said the root beer flavor was pretty strong)
• Add 1/4c. root beer and stir to combine. The sauce is thick so stir well.
• Then fill glass with remaining root beer.
• Spoon a bit of whipped topping on it and serve.
