I was on vacation recently and eating out and decided to get soda. I never drink soda but I said fuck it, I am on vacation. Decided to try something I never had before so I went with Doc Brown's root beer. I was actually shocked at how tasty it was. Never drank something so good so I kinda went on a root beer kick after that. What exactly is the ingredients in root beer that make it taste so good that is different from regular soda?

Mother fuckin sassafras root big chief. Or sasparilla vine. Those are the traditional old school ingredients. Nowadays they use an artificial extract since the real shit got banned in the 60s

The root beer thread is for talking about root beer. You're asking a question about root beer that could have been answered in the root beer thread. Talking about root beer ingredients is still talking about root beer
