Destinations like the Warner Bros. Studio Tour London and The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Parks & Resorts have been serving Butterbeer for many years—and soon, fans who visit Harry Potter New York will get to experience the creamy soft drink at the city's only Butterbeer Bar. Butterbeer is an alcohol-free, foam-topped soft drink with a creamy butterscotch taste and the highly requested beverage can be enjoyed in draft, bottled and ice cream forms.
The Butterbeer Bar is stocked with glowing bottles with collectible MinaLima labels and a spectacle of floating bottles that capture the magic of the wizarding world. In NYC, fans of all ages will also have the ability to sample plenty of other magically inspired treats.
