It&...Have you ever tried making your own root beer? It's actually pretty easy depending on the method you use. It can be made the old time way by brewing up the roots and seasonings yourself or you can buy the syrup on the internet. Root beer syrup comes unsweetened. It is just concentrated flavorings.<br /><br />Either way, sweeten to your own tastes using whatever sweetner you prefer, bottle it, and add carbonization either by natural yeasts, or from a CO2 cartridge.<br /><br />Making your own root beer is a fun hobby plus you can get something all natural. It will be as strong as you like it and sweetened to your personal tastes too. What I made was much better than any commercial brand I've ever bought.<br /><br />Another option is homemade root beer from a local micro-brewery. We have one here that makes fantastic root beer. My friends make fun of me because I order it when we drop by for a beer. Heck, I can get pretty good beer plenty of places but that's the only place in town with fantastic root beer.<br /><br />I's recommend you try making some yourself. It's fun, easy, and great quality.Dukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16070075813051886308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-190839643020761054.post-64386802156129360342010-05-10T11:15:01.717-07:002010-05-10T11:15:01.717-07:00I don't like soda much either.

Causes me to make a face that the husband refers to as, "the raptor".Xhanthihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09949807265436373051noreply@blogger.com
