Cheers, mates! It's time to talk about Hogsmeade! But mostly Butterbeer! Because yum.
This week on a very special episode of Yer a Wizard, Harry, we head to the kitchen! We try our hands at three different recipes for butterbeer and give YOU the lowdown on the best of the bunch (see all recipes below). And of course, the Quizzich cup continues and we talk about Lupin and Boggarts.
