• A Witches Brew, and Butterbeer -Recipes :)

  Witches Brew

  (this one pretty much fills a 12-quart cauldron)

  • four 48 oz cans pineapple juice
  • one 96 oz bottle orange juice
  • four 2 liter bottles lemon-lime soda
  • one 1.75 liter bottle vodka
  • one 1.75 liter bottle rum

  All measurements are approximate. Adjust to your own taste. Mix well.
  Pour into your cauldron, preferably with chunks of dry ice to create the bubbling steam effect.
  (Be careful NOT to drink or eat or in any way come in direct contact with skin with any chunks of dry ice - you can get burned by the extreme cold!)

   

  Original Butterbeer

  Makes 2 quarts.

  1 cup butterscotch schnapps
  7 cups cream soda (almost one 2 liter bottle)

  Carefully mix just before serving, adding the schnapps to the soda then stirring gently to mix well, or the fizz will dissipate too soon.
  To keep butterbeer on hand, pour 1 cup cream soda out of the 2-liter bottle, quickly add 1 cup butterscotch schnapps, and recap the bottle. 

  There is not much alcohol content in the butterbeer mixture, just enough to make a house-elf tipsy and to give it the warm, buttery aftertaste to the fizzy cream soda. Yum!
