Lovin' The Homestead
I want to order some roots for Man of the House to make his own root beer but I'm not finding a good source. Anybody out there sell this stuff, or do you have a website you like?

I think Anise and Licorice are acceptable replacements.Aromatic sassafras tea, once popular as a stimulant and blood thinner and as a reputed cure for rheumatism and syphilis, causes cancer in rats when taken in large amounts. Oil of sassafras and safrole, major chemical components of the aromatic oil in sassafras root bark, were taken out of root beer more than 30 years ago. And sassafras bark was banned from use in all food. Safrole-free extract, however, is allowed in food.
Wow, Thanks for the link Abifae.abifae said:I buy most of my herbs at Mountain Rose Herbs .
