Ingredients

Scale

Base Ingredients

  • 1 cup milk or plant-based milk (such as coconut or oat milk)
  • 2 tablespoons butterscotch syrup
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Fizz and Topping

  • 1/2 cup soda water or cream soda, chilled
  • Whipped cream (dairy or non-dairy), for topping

Optional Garnishes

  • Pinch of cinnamon
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • Extra butterscotch syrup

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Butterscotch Base: Heat the milk gently on the stove or in the microwave until warm but not boiling. Stir in the brown sugar and butterscotch syrup until fully dissolved and blended, creating a smooth, caramel-like foundation.
  2. Add Vanilla and Mix: Remove the warm milk mixture from heat and stir in the vanilla extract, infusing the drink with a warm, comforting aroma.
  3. Combine with Soda: Pour the butterscotch base into your favorite mug or glass. Slowly add the chilled soda water or cream soda to retain the carbonation and add a light, refreshing fizz.
  4. Top with Whipped Cream: Generously crown your drink with whipped cream to add richness and a velvety texture with each sip.
  5. Optional Garnish: Sprinkle a small pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg, or drizzle extra butterscotch syrup over the whipped cream for a beautiful and flavorful finishing touch.

Notes

  • Use a rich butterscotch syrup for the most authentic flavor.
  • Keep the milk mixture warm, not hot, to preserve flavor and texture.
  • Chill your serving glasses beforehand for a cooler, more refreshing drink.
  • Add soda last to maintain carbonation and achieve light bubbles.
  • Freshly whipped cream is preferred for best taste and texture.
  • This recipe is easily customizable for dietary preferences and can be made dairy-free by using plant-based milk and whipped topping.
