This is an article that talks about a chef who was tasked with creating the recipe of a drink that was made up in a book series.

A few years ago, "Butterbeer" was just a delicious-sounding word on a page (or at best, a glimpse in a movie). Now you can actually get your muggle hands on it- along with a Puking Pastille, Chocolate Frogs, and the other food and drinks from J.K. Rowling's universe - at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter, which now has locations in Orlando, Osaka, and Hollywood.

The man behind the barrels of Butterbeer is Steve Jayson, the Corporate Executive Chef of Universal Orlando who, ten years ago, was assigned the challenging task of bringing the magical food to life. We sat down with him over Pumpkin Juice and Cottage Pies in the Leaky Cauldron to chat about how he came up with all the recipes, what Rowling had to say when she gave the final taste test, and how many grown adults he's seen cry after trying Butterbeer for the first time.
Tell us how it all started.
When they told me about the idea for the park, I had not read any of the books or watched any of the movies. I'm more of a Die Hard kind of guy. So I watched all the movies, and then started on the books. There were a couple people in my office who had read all of the books, so they went through each of them and highlighted every food and beverage. Each book was filled with these color-coded tabs. Whenever I watched the movies, I would pause anytime the characters were in the Great Hall, so I could look carefully at what food was on the table. We also had to take a lot of trips to England, Scotland, and Ireland, exploring the pubs and taverns and talking to chefs about what ingredients they kept in their kitchens. My vision was for guests to be able to walk into a restaurant and feel like you were walking into a movie, or a book.

Did you collaborate with J.K. Rowling on the food?
She was the person who had the final approval over everything. We developed and tested recipes for all the dishes until we had versions that we felt that we really had nailed. Then we flew over to Scotland to meet with Rowling, presented her the menu we wanted to do, and she really liked everything! She had this big smile on her face - especially when she had the Pumpkin Juice. She even got that foamy white mustache when she tried the Butterbeer. It was really the icing on the cake for her to love what we did.
Speaking of Butterbeer, can you tell me what's in it?
No, I'm not allowed to tell you! But I can tell you that it is the most iconic thing we have created here. The number one activity that people come to the Wizarding World of Harry Potter to do is to have a Butterbeer.
OK, so can you tell me how you came up with the recipe for it?
We wanted this beverage to be for everyone - it wasn't going to be alcoholic. And we wanted to make something that would feel mystical and whimsical and magical, but that also resembled a beer, with a beautiful base, amber color, and creamy top. It had to taste unfamiliar, yet soothing and smooth. I thought of those soft butter cookies, or butterscotch, and that's what the recipe is based off of. But everyone tastes it differently - some say cookies, some say creamsicles. It's a magical beverage like that.
