Starbucks Brought Back The Smoked Butterscotch Latte, and It Apparently Tastes Like Butterbeer

By Ellie Conley at Spoon HQ

Starbucks has brought back a fan favorite drink—the Smoked Butterscotch Latte. It's rumored to taste like Harry Potter and the gang's favorite Butterbeer, but unless you've been to Hogwarts, there's no saying for sure. I mean, I bet it's close, though. Starbucks is pretty magical.

The latte is made with steamed milk, smoked butterscotch sauce, and espresso. You can get it served hot, over ice, or blended up in a Frappuccino. No, there's no alcohol in it. But you could always spike it with some Firewhiskey, aka Fireball? I would not recommend doing that though, especially before class.

Ugh, drinking Fireball kind of makes me feel like Ron Weasley when his spell on Draco Malfoy backfired and he couldn't stop puking slugs. 

Anyways, you may remember this drink from last winter when it made it's temporary debut. While it was gone, die-hard Harry Potter fans have had to ask for the Butterbeer Latte off the secret menu (which is a concoction of caramel, cinnamon dolce, and toffee syrups.)

You can order this drink starting today at participating locations, but unfortunately, only for a limited time. But don't worry, once it's gone, you can always go back to ordering off the secret menu.
