Great to have while watching Harry Potter, Fantastic Beasts, and the Harry Potter Reunion on HBO Max. I cannot wait to watch the reunion on HBO Max on January 1st, 2022. It’s a celebration of the 20th anniversary.

The Espresso

The trick to a good butterbeer Frappuccino is finding a crème brulee or butterscotch infused coffee bean. I usually find these at Central Market. Look for them at your specialty coffee shops or specialty grocery.

You do need a blender and espresso machine to make the coffee version of this Frappuccino. However, this butterbeer frap can be made without coffee and without dairy. Which omits the espresso machine in the coffee free version.

Dairy Free and Espresso Free

Need to make this without dairy. Just replace the ice cream with a coconut dairy free ice cream and oat milk to replace the milk in the recipe. For the coffee just leave it out. You may want to add butterscotch simple syrup instead.

Blend the ingredients together. Drizzle the cup with butterscotch and caramel syrup. Top off with whipped topping and drizzle with both butterscotch and caramel syrup from Smucker’s. I always use those syrups as they are the best in flavor around.
