The difference between Sarsaparilla and Root Beer:
Originally, both sarsaparilla and root beer were produced by native Americans. Both were considered tonics.
At first, sarsaparilla was made from the root of the sarsaparilla vine while root beer was produced from the roots of the sassafras tree.
Today, both have very similar tastes with sarsaparilla having a slight smoky hint. Overall, you will discover that Earp’s Sarsaparilla is less sweet than most of today’s root beers making Earp’s absolutely perfect for ice cream floats.
Earp’s is outselling regular root beers and is a TOP SELLER.
