Harry Potter Butterbeer

It's time you learned the truth about me. I am a Harry Potter Junkie. The last book came out in 2007, and the last movie was released in 2011 ( I can't believe its been almost 3 years), but it is still close to my heart. One of my friends even has a Harry Potter blog, called Harry Blotter, which you can find here, if you too are part of the Harry Potter fandom.
In the Harry Potter series, there is a favorite drink for the students of Hogwarts called Butterbeer (non-alcoholic) that they are often found drinking on their trips to Hogsmeade. If you aren't part of the wizarding community, you can also find it at Potterworld in Disney World in Orlando, Florida. Unfortunately, I live in the middle of the United States and do not have a private plane that I can hop on and to head to Florida whenever I want, but I can make this easy home recipe. All you need is cream soda, Coke, butterscotch syrup, and whipped cream. This recipe is for making one glass, but you can apply it to however much you want.
Fill the cup 2/3 of the way with cream soda, then fill it almost the rest of the way with Coke. Put however much whip cream and butterscotch syrup you would like in your drink in another cup in equal proportions and mix them together. Pour the whipped cream and butterscotch syrup mixture into the glass with cream soda and Coke, and you'll magically be transported to the World of Harry Potter! Not really, but it tastes pretty good.
