    BLECHK!!! Waaay too sweet. This is coming from someone who drinks white mochas with two pumps of peppermint in it, I am no stranger to sweet drinks, but this was too sweet to drink. That being said, I did give it two stars instead of one, because the flavor itself was good, and it definitely tasted the way I imagined it would when I first read about it so long ago. But this recipe takes that flavor and multiplies it until it tastes like you're drinking liquid butterscotch candies with four cups of confectioners sugar mixed in. My suggestion would be to use only a fourth (or possibly even a sixth! of the butterscotch/milk/butter mixture per serving. That way you still get the accurate flavor, without it being so sickeningly sweet.

    Sweetened condensed milk is just too sickly sweet, so I used evaporated milk. Next time I will drop the butter, which I found made the drink too heavy and did not mix in well, plus it is not necessary for flavour, over and above the butterscoth topping. Vanilla cream soda is very hard to find here in Ottawa (Canada but I finally located Virgil's at Farm Boy - it is excellent craft brewed vanilla cream soda. The resulting warm butterbeer was very good, but I like the cold and frozen versions at Universal just as much.

    This recipe is too sweet as is. I made some changes that made it a little more palatable.
    I trippled the recipe in order to serve it to my guests. I also added milk so as to make it less sweet (@ least 2 cups for the trippled recipe. Instead of the butter, I added 1/4 tsp of vanilla extract and 1 tsp of butter flavored extract. I wanted my guests to be able to drink it either hot or cold and the butter would not have worked if taken cold. It was perfect! Either hot or cold I topped it with whipped cream.
