Make Your Own Artisan Root Beer Kit

Cola, schmola is the secret catchphrase shared among members of the very exclusive Root Beer Appreciation Society…which does not exist, but definitely should. Because there’s a special bond among those who prefer the spicy, revitalizing taste of root beer, a soft drink that's such an American original, the founding fathers were probably quaffing it when they signed the Declaration of Independence (Philly gets awfully hot in summer, after all). This home-brewing kit is for all would-be members of the R.B.A.S.—and anyone who enjoys rolling up their sleeves and indulging in some traditional refreshment-making.

• In just a few hours, craft 4 liters of thirst-quenching root beer with rich botanical flavor and a creamy, satisfying mouthfeel.
• No corn syrup or food coloring, just high-quality ingredients: caramelly demerara sugar and a custom blend of real sarsaparilla, birch bark, ginger root, and juniper berries.
• The easy-to-follow instructions (supplemented by a how-to video via QR code) include customization tips, like how to cook up caramel color the old-fashioned way.
• Mix the finished syrup into seltzer water for instant soda, or use the included yeast and bottling kit to carbonate the root beer naturally: a science experiment that’s deliciously fascinating for all.
• Made in Florida.
