Typo Alert: I've just caught a typo in the final recipe graphic in this video. Sadly, I can't fix it now.
"1 inch grated nutmeg"
should read
"1 inch grated ginger"
Sorry!
There's something so darn Chistmassy about the Harry Potter films, particularly the first few, that I always thought of them as Christmas Movies, even though maybe they're not. Well I'm kicking off this holiday season with a hot mug of cheer with this 1588 recipe for Butterbeer. I know there's a ton of nonalcoholic recipes out there for Butterbeer and those are fine, but honestly, I think this is more in line with what J.K. Rowling had in mind when she wrote the books. For starters, the kids need to grow up from Pumpkin Juice to Butterbeer, implying there's something more mature about it. Secondly Europe and the U.K. are a bit more lax in regards legal drinking ages, and I'd imagine wizards even more so. Thirdly, Butterbeer is an actual real thing, found in a Tudor cookbook from 1588. Was J.K. Rowling specifically referencing this recipe? I can't say for sure (unless she wants to answer!) but I CAN say that I was shocked to discover that Nicolas Flamel was a real person, who wrote a book on alchemy and the creation of the Philosophers Stone. They have copies of it at the NY Public Libary reference branch, rare books section. So, she wasn't strictly making things up with these books. So, this Butterbeer as the official Wizards Butterbeer? Maybe.
Making this episode was the first time I'd made butterbeer, and I'm just gonna be frank: I loved it. This stuff is incredible, though perhaps best in moderation since it's not far off from pancake batter. I'm pretty sure it'll be a huge hit at any holiday party you through. Enjoy!

Second thing: I caught a typo in the final recipe of this video! "1 inch grated nutmeg" should read "1 inch grated ginger", fairly obvious but I had to set the record straight!

Hey I made this fallowing your recipe. It was DELICIOUS!
I did the test 32%grifandore 24% ravenclaw
18% hufflepuff 16% slitheran
I was like granger
Couldn’t tell if u made the non alcoholic version?
Oh hey, I have learned there IS a reason to use dried over fresh ginger. Fresh ginger has more of a biting, tingling, bright flavor, while dried ginger converts alot of those flavors into a sort of burning hot taste. Experiment! make ginger tea with both.
That’s the Ravenclaw in you lol 🤣🦅💙 always teaching and correcting …. Go Ravenclaw!!!

Fantastic Drinks and How to Make Them
I'd watch that
Sooo clever... ! Love it.
Bravo!
Make this a recipe book!
Take your damn upvote.
in the UK drinking with friends is pretty normal from the age of like 15 so it may seem weird to americans but them drinking real alcohol in the books isn't too odd
Book 5 and after maybe
It doesn't seem weird to us, real Americans hate the stupid drinking age law. You can go join the military and vote at 18 but can't drink or smoke... tsk... but most states allow kids to drink on family property at 16 under adult supervision
@@PUNISHERMHS_2021 actually i think 25 is a better age to bump it up to. Why? You won’t party out your liver in your twenties like most stupid ass kids. Plus then you can focus on your career with college (stem) or a trade.
Well to be fair the legal age and drinking age differ everwhere. In germany drinking is allowed from the age of 18 but people usually have their first hangover with 14. Literally not a si gle person i know did not drink alcohol before they were legally allowed to do so
Yes it is. The drinking age in the UK is 18 (and in the wizarding world it's 17). So anyone drinking below that is breaking the law. You certainly couldn't buy alcohol in a pub without ID that proves your age.
No one will probably see this but, I tried to figure out how I would make a single serving of this drink and came up with the following recipe. 12 oz. of ale , with just a dash of dried clove powder, ginger powder, and nutmeg. Let it come to a very low simmer in a sauce pan, hint taste as you go to see how much spice to add, you don't need much with these ingredients! While waiting for your beer to warm up take two egg yolk and mix them with 1/4 cup of demerara or light brown sugar if you don't have access to demerara. Beat the yolks in with the sugar until it is white in color. Then take a ladle and slowly while mixing if possible, temper your egg sugar mixture by adding a little bit of beer at a time, once that mixture is tempered, add it to the rest of your beer, depending on the head of the beer you may need to whisk it a bit vigorously to achieve a serious froth. Finally while its still warm melt 1oz. of butter and pour into a large mug. Note, some experimentation has also been done with porter, and I found it to be good as well, though not very frothy.
Egg whites you mean? By the way, thx for the measurements!
@@heama he actually only used the yokes not the whites in this recipe, I'd honestly be interested in seeing if there would be of beating the whites and folding them into the beer. if you used the whites instead let me know how it turned out
thank you :)
Does the foam count as part of the 12 oz?
@@lilporky8565 I used a standard American 12 Oz bottle and the amount of beer foam will depend on your pour. You will end up with more than 12 Oz obviously since you will be adding a considerable amount of sugar and egg.
Liquid French Toast. This drink sounds like Liquid French Toast, which sounds like an amazing description
ErikaRene I agree:)
Definitely
Then, you would need maple syrup ;)
@@freb maple syrup is not really a common ingredient in french toast. If you like it that way all power to you but this doesnt require maple syrup for it to be liquid french toast

@@steamedcarrot781 lol talk about over the top. I love it.
Steamed Carrot you legend
@@steamedcarrot781 Ok so I decided to not do that. I made it though and damn is it good. It kinda tastes like a hot eggnog.
I was so excited to taste Butterbeer when I found a bottle on sale, too bad that the official one is basically like drinking sparkling syrup. This is closer to what I always pictured the drink to be: a creamy, hot and slightly spicy beverage, almost like a mix between eggnog and a cappuccino. I'm totally gonna try this recipe one day
HOT? Beer isn’t supposed to be hot.

Word to the wise: DRINK IMMEDIATELY. I made this for Halloween and after a few hours it looked VERY VERY unappetizing!!
well yeah it's meant to be served warm
@@DonkyPunch712 I know, I wanted to let people know that reheating doesn't work with this
What did it look like?

@Samuel Skala yep. Didn't work
The Quaffle in the fruit bowl is a great little easter egg!
This is what I imagined when they mentioned butter beer in the books. Not like the ones in the park.
Ana Banana well they have to make an alternate for the ppl under 18 in the park. I imagined it to be beer that are creamy as butter with a little ginger sweet taste when i read the book. The one in the park just taste like syrup
They're so gross! I was so excited to try out Butter Beer in the lodge, but it turned out nasty.
omg same lol
I always pictured it as a warm creamy buttery flavoured drink. It's not supposed to be alcoholic except for house elves. But overall this seems to line up well with what was described. I'll definitely be making it.
Have you guys tried the hot butter beer in the parks? It’s pretty movie accurate..
Made this with some friends last week.
Don't have a big meal before having this drink. This drink IS a large meal.
Super tasty, very filling, will definitely sleep for 14 hours after a glass or two.
How many would you say this recipe serves?
@@cab1956 depends on the season. 1 whole pot for winter is 1 person for me. Lol
true, very filling, i made it with friends and they didnt like it so i had to take it all down myslef, over a course of a couple of days ofc
It sounds like a whole breakfast with all that butter and egg in it. Kind of nasty sounding when you look at the ingredients but it tastes amazing.
Holy shit, it really is orgasmic....I wanted more but it really is filling...sooooo full but wanted more
I really love revisiting these og videos this time a year just fits the holiday vibes very nicely
when to add the butter?
Just found this, wanted a good recipe using actual beer (not that super sweet butterscotch-y soda) to drink while playing the new Hogwarts game- this came out great!! Followed directions exactly, except used ground ginger (1.5 tsp) and ground nutmeg. Will be making again!!! 🍺

I actually had a friend who worked in Orlando’s Universal Studios!
If you want to make a frozen butter beer as they make ‘em in the theme park:
1) You’ll want a bottle of Cream Soda
2) Blend it LIGHTLY with crushed ice
3) in a separate bowl you’ll want a decent amount of whipped cream (about a four second squirt)
4) lightly mix in caramel syrup into the whipped cream and adjust to a light caramel taste
5) Pour in your soda cream slush and top with caramel cream topping
I kid you not, this is exactly how they do it and it is surprising easy to make. Plus, most households have whipped cream, caramel syrup, and ice! All ya need is the cream soda and you’ll be in for a treat 😁
Somebody pin this comment.

lol genuine question: do most American households typically have whipped cream and caramel syrup on hand? Specifically the whipped cream in the spray can? 😂
@@karlcarlsburg9641 yes most Americans have whipped cream in their fridge. Caramel syrup is less common but easy to find at stores why do you ask?
@@karlcarlsburg9641 not anymore. gotta be 21 to buy whipped cream now
I always come back to this every Christmas, fantastic recipe!
A tip on ginger use: peel it with a vegetable peeler, tightly wrap it in plastic wrap, freeze it, and *then* grate it: it turns into an almost ginger snow that dissolves super fast and is significantly easier to grate as the fibers don't come apart.
Peel it with a teaspoon. Less wastage.
Ya, I made this and mine came out a little chunky, gonna take this advice for the second batch. (Yes it was still that good)
Oooh, that's such a nice idea!! Thanks for the tip 😘

Hey Greg! I made this recipe in my pressure cooker and used a hand mixer, it worked out really well as a replacement for a fancy heated stand mixer bowl.
Late to the show but just tried this recipe tonight and oh my goodness if it isn't one of the best warm drinks out there. As explained in the video the spices blend into the beer and goes to the background while the creaminess gets boosted! Definitely a recommended drinks for those cold winter days!

Well this was a lark to watch! Reading Harry Potter to my daughter this summer, watching the movie after each book, and having thematic treats. I made rock cakes and we're going to have butter beer soon (nonalcoholic, she's 10) and I loved watching your version of it and hearing all your HP commentary and trivia.
Initially I thought this guy is definitely a Hufflepuff. By the end of it, especially when he goes into nerdily clarifying and explaining how there's half a butter stick in the beverage, I was convinced that he's a Ravenclaw. Your sense of humor was pure class. Keep it up mate. By the way you've gained yourself a new subscriber.
To be clear, the fandom does accept hybrid houses, wherein a person may exemplify strong traits from more than their chosen house. I, for example, am technically a Hufflepuff, but I consider myself a Huffleclaw.
@@angelnichols5408 i consider you a huge bender
Angel Nichols I think traditionally they would just say you are a hufflepuff with Ravenclaw undertones, cause I don’t think you can mix the houses like that
This is the most bent comment I've ever seen
I think the Hufflepuffs must always have a nice smelling common room and dorms, not just because of the plants in their common room... But because of one other thing. If I am not mistaken, they are right near the Hogwarts Kitchens.
I went to universal studios once and passed the butter beer cart without trying it...

Same here, im not old enough to drink though but i love it i like the 20s era music, the lighting, the angels and overall just him hosting.
I miss these old episodes. The lighting seems better, there’s more of the elegant slow close ups, the music, the video quality even seems to be sharper, good tasty spirits on the shelves, a calmer happier Greg. Count this as my vote to close the book on the new torture trial episodes and go back to this calmer nicer format.
so I've been making this recipe for my adult family and friends for 4 years now. it really makes Christmas enjoyable again for us all.
doesnt anybody think he looks like jacob kowalski from fantastic beasts
Anybody? So many. I’m like one out of ten comments on this video is this
I was going to say the same thing but you beat me to it.
ACCURATE
No you don't. They just see a guy with black hair a little chub and a mustache,and also very charismatic. Kinda got that same charm.
Especially at the beginning,I had to stick up for him,I've got that same kinda funny man,charm and get related to him as well, even with blonde hair,blue eyes funny thing nobody knows his name neither do I. But it drives me nuts because some idiots start to think that you must be like them,if you remind them of them. I'va also reminded people of jonna hill.oooooh god,I'd rather look like other guy.
I didn't know I wanted a cute lumberjack explaining to me how to make drinks for Christmas, but here it is. One of the most entertaining cocktail webshows in a long time.
Just wanted to let you know I discovered your recipe 3 yrs ago now and I have made every holiday season on Christmas eve for my family....it is our most fav tradition and my family raves about this for the next year saying they cannot wait till Christmas specifically for this drink......just wanted to say thank you and hope you have had good holiday season

*"I'm in serious danger of drinking this whole thing."*
*-Greg 2018*
I would recomend using dried ginger as it has a slightly different flavour to fresh ginger (spicier and generally stronger)
Omg it’s delicious. Absolutely a xmas drink and a cheer up drink.
You would use ground ginger opposed to fresh because ground versus fresh ginger undergoes significant flavor changes on a chemical level that will carry through to the final product/drink/recipe. Yes, ginger is a tropical plant and resultantly does not grow well in England, but the chemistry is why I would side with using the dried ginger or else risk changing the flavor profile significantly. There are some good youtube videos on ginger specifically and these changes it undergoes through various processes, including simple dehydration.

just tried making this for the first time. Came out differently then yours. a lot of people seemed to describe yours as "french toast" mine was more "gingerbread". used a little extra ginger and i only had brown sugar on hand. still got compliments. Might next go round will be using a pale ale, raw cane sugar (no molasses), less ginger, and maybe that 6th egg you mentioned
This is my Xmas morning drink! Been doing it for that last few years and always put this on! Merry Christmas!

If anyone wants to know the (estimated) ABV for this, I've tried to figure it out myself.
(edit) It's 4.74% if you don't care about math, but if you do, read more.
First, I found the estimated weight of the final drink:
Weight of the ale: (alcohol is on average 5% denser than water) Samuel Smith Winter Welcome Ale is 550 ml per bottle 550 * 1.05 = 577.5 3 * 577.5=1732.5
Total volume of ale is a little more than 1.5 liters, I want this to be as accurate as possible.
1650 mL of ale = 1732.5 grams ale
1 inch of ginger = roughly 1 1/4 teaspoons ground which = roughly 1.74 grams of ginger
Half teaspoon of nutmeg = 2.46 mL (density of nutmeg is around .89 g/mL) roughly 2.19 grams of nutmeg
Weight of cloves varies greatly, but from multiple sources, I'll put the grams at an average of 5g per piece. 6 cloves * 5g = 30 grams of cloves
sugar (easy) = 225 grams sugar
egg yolks weigh on average 20 g each, 5 egg yolks = 5 * 20 = 100 grams egg yolks
finally, butter (easy) = 100 grams butter
Estimated total weight of finished product: 2,191.43 grams.
Then, I found the alcohol weight in the ale alone:
Alcohol by volume of the ale = 6.00 %
Therefore, the alcohol weight of the total 1732.5 grams of ale is 1732.5 * 0.06 = 103.95
Total alcohol weight in final drink 103.95 grams
ESTIMATED ABV OF FINAL DRINK = 103.95 / 2191.43 = 4.74
4.74 % alcohol by volume, still within average range of ABV of beer.
I didn't account for any of the ingredients burning off during preparation or that spill at 7:53 :) but I think this is as accurate of an estimate I could find given the data I could find and the ingredients in the video.
Feel free to let me know if you would have done something different. Besides doing something else with 45 minutes of my life.
I spent way too much time on this.

Alcohol boils at 73°C, so quite a bit of it will have boiled off
@@kieranh2005 exactly. Vapour pressure of alcohol, area of the free boundaries of the mixture, energy use in the heating, time of heating and interaction between water and alcohol are factors that should be considered for the estimation of the alcohol lost (in reality many more ). My guess is that the real alcohol percentage is about 1.5, 2% by volume
You smoked out😂

Inspiring words
I love it lol
We ended up making this as a trial run for Yule / Christmas / Solstice this year and MY. GOD.
It's amazing O_O
Rich and warm and it just sorta turns your entire body into a buttery sweet spiced cottonfluff of "yup I'm happy now"
Thank you!
That's magic ;-)
I might add as well, since this video has released, those tankards are now completely sold out, so kudos to you for bringing the maker a ton of business!
I found a second supplier of the same exact tankard and updated the link, that’s for the heads up!
The mug does look cool but I've been seeing a lot of reviewers saying the mug leaks after a few uses. Nothing to do with the drink but i thought i'd mention it.
sketch zeppelin it’s a wooden tankard, you’ve got to use it semi regularly or it dries out
That doesn't seem to be it. Customers are reporting that it starts leaking after only a few uses soon after buying or that it leaks straight out of the package. Often from the bottom. It seems like half the reviews report the tankard leaking either straight away or within a few days.

Binging with Babish's cool older brother.
Older?! Damn.
Love this show- I binge it at work just to keep my mental skills going.

I watched this last year about this time and it popped up again, so watching it again. Subscribed to the channel after watching the Tiki Tiki Room Dole Whip episode. The Pearl Diver was also really good. Always a relaxing journey. I live the background music. I’m from Louisiana and it makes me think of New Orleans. Keep the videos coming, Good Sir.
Great episode! Merry Christmas 🎄 Beer and Bread to you! Beer and Butter too!
Thanks Babish for sending me to this guy!

I now know who is Babish thanks to you
UA-cam algorithms are working again! This video got recommended and now I cannot stop binge watching this channel
Yessssss give into your binge
I don't even drink alcohol and I'm not sure how I ended up here, but this was very enjoyable to watch!!
Did this for my family tonight. I had to use coars banquet instead of ale, but everyone still seemed to love it. Thank you.
I just saw this recipe - and BUM - I already cooking the beverage in the next minute. It's a kind of magic. Its Veeeeery delicious and helps me fight cough. ;) I used unfiltered Blanche beer and cut sugar in half. Greets from Ukraine!
Which Blanche did you use exactly, if you happen to remember? 🙂 I am wondering right now where would I get "real ale" in Ukraine.
Dude, the Bedknobs & Broomsticks reference immediately made me fall in love with your channel. Best movie of my childhood!
So I just discovered your videos but omg the beautiful filming style/intro reminded me so much of Julien Solomita. I feel like you guys would be friends haha. It made me smile ☺️
Ive made a non alcoholic version of this with cream soda, heavy whipping cream and some butterscotch syrup and it was really good!
Made this for my mom's bday cause she is a Harry Potter fan. Turned out great, thanks for the recipe Greg!
I will be trying this. But here in my home state of Washington there is a Brewery located in Leavenworth called the Icicle brewery and they make this insanely delicious Ale called Dark Persuasion and it is a German Chocolate Cake ale so i will have to try making a batch of butter beer with that....... Sooooo excited
Once you tried it, let us know more!
Oh my goodness....I am intrigued
Casey-j-Neer CJN ITS ACTUALLY AMAZING. Had it at the Olympia brew fest and you won’t be disappointed!

I was Best Man at a friend's wedding at Ohme Gardens in Weenatchee, Washington. That night after the day wedding, I organized a party for everyone at a Biergarten in Leavenworth. Everyone had a great time. Leavenworth is a town well worth visiting.
Haven’t been in WA for years, but I fondly remember the breweries!
Every single time I hear the Harry Potter theme intro, I automatically expect the earrape version.
C W bruv same.😂😂
Well I was going to listen to a 1hour loop of that but I have school so not today
I feel your pain. Memes have changed me.
@@raulphilipgoco403 what about today?
Robbie Zimmerman school. Just started. I hate my life
I like sloppy shows man, makes me trust what you’re doing more. Makes me feel that it’s more possible for me to do it 😂
Found your channel just recently and already adore it!
Consistently one of my favorite channels and I'm 100% making this for Christmas.
I've spent so much time unsuccessfully looking for actual butter beer thank you so much for bringing this to us
Fellow Ravenclaw!!!! Loved the video. Can’t wait to drink this and your mulled wine recipe during the holidays coming up
Ooo! I'm definitely trying this closer to Christmas. Thank you so much!

I don't even drink, but I still find these videos ridiculously interesting and relaxing.
Yes he is very good at being entertaining. you could always try it as beer batter. Just scale down the ratios and only use one pint of Ale then add some flour. As he mentioned fish and chips made with this would probably be really freaking good.
But if you wanted to avoid the alcohol entirely a good strong Ginger soda would probably work. The biggest reason for putting beer into batter is the carbonation. Makes for crispy breading.
Calm, casual speech without a ton of cuts and smooth jazz playing in the background.
Made this following your recipe and it was amazing! 😍
