1
Prepare the Syrup
In a medium saucepan, combine the water, sugar, root beer extract, sarsaparilla root, wintergreen leaves, and vanilla extract. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar dissolves.
2
Simmer
Reduce heat and let the mixture simmer for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
3
Strain the Syrup
Once cooled, strain the syrup through a fine mesh sieve to remove the solid ingredients.
4
Mix with Carbonated Water
In a glass, combine 1/4 cup of the syrup with 1/2 cup of carbonated water. Adjust the syrup to your taste.
5
Serve
Fill the glass with ice and stir gently. Serve immediately.
