Title: Root Beer #2
Categories: Beverages
Yield: 1 Batch

1	oz	Sassafras
1	oz	Allspice
1	oz	Yellowdock
1	oz	Wintergreen
1/2	oz	Wild cherry bark
1/2	oz	Coriander seeds
1	oz	Hops
3	qt	Molasses
1/2	ts	Yeast
4	ga	Cold water

[NOTE: the amount of yeast in our database was 1/2 pt yeast. That is clearly a typo and so I guessed and changed it to 1/2 ts yeast. This has not been tested! Dale Shipp]

Mix together the sassafras, allspice, yellow dock, wintergreen, wild cherry bark, coriander seeds, hops and molasses. Cover them with boiling water, allow to stand for 24 hours, then filter, add the yeast and cold water.

The beer will be ready in twenty-four hours. Bottle and seal. "This is a recipe from a very old (1914) canning, preserving and pickling book I have." Posted by: Gidget Lowther
