I do enjoy the drink, Sarsaparilla

@calicuz I have never had root beer. No vanilla.
Supposedly tastes similar to root beer, though I would say it is like a very, very mild licorice taste.

@calicuz sarsaparilla - This versatile drink offers a distinct, earthy flavor with a hint of vanilla

Sarsaparilla and Root Beer were founded by the Native Americans before arriving in Europe.
Both beverages are named after their distinct differences in ingredients when they were first made. Sarsaparilla was made from the Sarsaparilla vine, while Root Beer, roots of the sassafras tree.
These days, Root Beer recipes do not include sassafras as the plant has been found to cause serious health issues.
The vine was banned by the American Food and Drug Administration for commercial food production in 1960.
