Secret Menu Butterbeer Frappuccino - featured image

A rich, buttery, and creamy homemade Butterbeer Frappuccino inspired by the Harry Potter secret menu, perfect for cozy nights, parties, or a sweet treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup whole milk (or milk alternative like oat or almond for dairy-free)
  • 1 cup ice cubes (about 810 cubes)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1/4 cup butterscotch syrup (Torani recommended)
  • 2 tablespoons caramel sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • Pinch of sea salt
  • Whipped cream (store-bought or homemade) for topping
  • Caramel sauce for drizzle
  • Cinnamon or nutmeg for garnish (optional)

Instructions

  1. Measure out the milk, heavy cream, butterscotch syrup, caramel sauce, vanilla extract, cinnamon, and sea salt. Have your ice cubes ready.
  2. Pour the milk and heavy cream into the blender first, then add butterscotch syrup, caramel sauce, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sea salt. Finally, add the ice cubes.
  3. Blend on high speed for 30 to 45 seconds until smooth and creamy with tiny ice crystals. Adjust thickness by adding milk or ice cubes as needed.
  4. Taste and adjust sweetness or vanilla flavor by adding more butterscotch, caramel, or vanilla extract if desired, then blend briefly again.
  5. Pour into a glass and top generously with whipped cream, drizzle caramel sauce over the top, and sprinkle cinnamon or nutmeg if desired.
  6. Serve immediately while cold and frothy.

Notes

For a dairy-free version, substitute whole milk and heavy cream with plant-based alternatives like almond or coconut milk and use dairy-free whipped topping. To prep ahead, blend the base without ice and refrigerate up to 24 hours; blend with ice before serving. Adjust sweetness to taste and don’t skip the pinch of sea salt to balance flavors. Use a sturdy blender for best texture; if unavailable, crush ice manually but texture may vary.
