My sisters were in town a few weeks ago. We had a sleep over at my house. It was so much fun to be together as sisters. We went to lunch, a movie and made ROOT BEER. This makes for two times this summer. Funny that we don't really drink that much root beer at our house but we seem to have a lot of the supplies to make it so.... Here you get the inside look at making root beer.
Carefully adding extract. I know I thought it would be fun to add my own spices together to make root beer only to find out that in the US of A you can not get your hands on sassafras root. It causes cancer and the FDA finds it to be "unsafe" So I resort to using extract that could also cause cancer but the FDA has chosen to allow it.
Here is the real scientist, Lori carefully measuring and figuring how to convert milliliters to ounces to gallons. I quickly turned this activity over to the two of them. I was reaching for my phone to call Gene (my Dad) when the math words started flying.
Paige was the master mixer. You see she missed rootbeer making last month so we did this night just for her. It was tons of fun and we are glad we made more.
This was late in the night probably around 10:30pm when we were silly sisters that we are so used to being. Bottoms up!
We soon made our way to the spare room and piled all three of us on the bed to laugh and visit LATE into the night.
