Harry Potter fans no longer have to visit the The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios for a taste of Harry Potter life.

Pennsylvania’s Yuengling Ice Cream has just introduced Butterbeer ice cream. The ice cream is half buttercream, half butterscotch with a delicious swirl of butterscotch. Although in the wizarding world butterbeer is a mild beer, it has been altered to include zero alcohol.

“My kids were big Harry Potter fans and we wanted to do something unique,” David Yuengling, president of Yuengling’s Ice Cream, told Huffington Post, explaining how the flavor was created.

The pint is available at several super market chains in the region for $ $3.69 to $3.99. The flavour will be a permanent part of of Yuengling’s ice cream line up which consists of 20 flavours.

Yuengling  added: “We are always looking for ways to inspire our fans and spark creativity. Whether it's our flavor names and descriptions or the recipes themselves — we’re in the business of having fun.”

Yuengling Ice Cream hope they have made JK Rowling proud with the flavour.
