Homemade Harry Potter Butterbeer Recipe!

Our wands are packed because we’re headed to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter tonight.  We can’t wait for the magic to begin! We love Universal Orlando and we can already smell the Butterbeer. If you can’t  make it to the park, Homemade Harry Potter Butterbeer is very easy to make with this homemade recipe.

Butterbeer from Universal Orlando is a very sweet drink and comes in a frozen version or regular topped with a tasty foam. I can’t make it exactly like they do at home, but sure came close!

I have two things I’m excited to share with you today. The first is my latest recipe for Slim Down Detox Water. It’s so easy and I’m happy to share what has happened to me since starting to drink this detox water recipe!

The second thing is that I’m checking off one of my dream bucket list goals. I’m super excited to tell you that after years of dreaming and talking about it, I’m finally DOING IT… and traveling to Greece this summer! I’ve always wanted to visit this country, but after seeing Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2, I knew I HAD to go.
