What is taste of root beer like?
There isnt available outside of USA.

Hi, Ivan, welcome to the echo. What are your
food interests, besides root beer?

To answer your question, root beer is rare
outside the US, but a similar soft drink,
sarsaparilla, can be found in western Europe,
especially England. The closest I can think
of that is easily available in Russia is
tarkhun, though the similarity is not great
- tarkhun is herbal and "green" tasting, and
root beer tastes woody and of roots and is
"brown" tasting. The major ingredients of root
beer are sassafras, wintergreen, sarsaparilla,
vanilla, licorice, and coriander seed, though
the A&W brand, one of the most famous over here,
at one time advertised 16 herbs (I forget the
rest of them, but recipes are available on the
Internet).
