Butterbeer

taking a slight break from the WOB norm,


Why I tried this: Because this is Harry Potter and his friend's drink of choice, they are wizards. I figured they would know a thing or two about drinks. I thought maybe if I drank this I could get a broomstick and fly around, but unfortunately all the broomsticks at Harry Potter Universal are cheap hollow plastic.

Smell: Has a butterscotchy and subtle marshmallow scent, very sweet smelling.

Taste: When you take your first sip you get through the thick head of the drink. The thick head is very very sweet and tastes like a butterscotch marshmallow mixture of some kind. After the head hits you get to the cool liquid that is creamy tasting and very fizzy. The drink is smooth and refreshing but very sweet and sugary.

On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give Butterbeer an 8/10. It is refreshing and delicious but it does not count towards the goal of 500. Additionally, there is no alcohol in butterbeer so maybe after 15 you could get a pretty awesome sugar rush but that's about it. Also, it just tastes like a delicious top head added to cream soda. They lose points for lack of creativity. Harry Potter land at Universal all in all does look pretty awesome though.
