Egg Fast Recipe - Bulletproof Butterbeer


I am currently re-reading the Harry Potter series (for what has to be the 10th or 11th time).  Anyone who has read (or seen) the Harry Potter series will be familiar with "Butterbeer."  This is my low-carb take on the famous beverage of the Wizarding World.  I made it Egg Fast friendly, because I have a close friend who has been considering trying out an Egg Fast to jumpstart her weight loss.  She is a little wary of the Bulletproof Coffee because she prefers coffee drinks that don't taste anything like coffee.  She only likes those frosty, frou-frou, coffee beverages.  I explained to her that she could have any bulletproof beverage (coffee, tea, or even hot cocoa), and I think she's finally starting to come around. This recipe is for her.  Some people like to add eggs to their Bulletproof Beverage, and I think you could probably do that with this beverage as well (if that's your "bag").

Ingredients:
  • 1/2 cup boiling water
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter
  • 2 tablespoons DaVinci sugar-free caramel syrup
  • 3 drops rum extract
  • 1/2 cup diet cream soda, room temperature or heated
    Directions:

    1.  Combine the water, butter, caramel syrup, and rum extract.  Blend in a "traditional" blender, with an immersion blender, or with a blender bottle until a frothy head is achieved.


     2.  Pour into an 8-ounce (or larger) mug.  Add the diet cream soda and stir gently.


    Yields: 1 serving
