root beer origin story

Root beer has an interesting origin story. Native Americans were the first to use sassafras root for medicinal and flavoring purposes. When Europeans arrived, they took note of these uses. In the 19th century, pharmacists in the United States started making their own versions of root - based drinks. These were initially sold in pharmacies as tonics. Over time, the recipe was refined and commercialized, and root beer as we know it today was born. It became a popular non - alcoholic beverage, often served in soda fountains and later in cans and bottles.

The origin of root beer is rooted (pun intended) in Native American herbal knowledge. They used sassafras root which was then incorporated by settlers. Pharmacists later played a role in creating the commercial version we know today.
