About this episode
This week Uncle Brad and Jules get to the root... of root beer. Tracing it back centuries before it was ever a soda - long before A&W, before it even had a name. Then they build two rooty root beer cocktails:
Jules's Root Beer White Russian Float
1oz Ten To One Caribbean dark rum,
1oz Mario's coffee liqueur
1oz root beer
Topped with root beer cold foam
Brad's Root Beer Old Fashioned
2.5oz Buffalo Trace bourbon
0.5oz Dr. McGillicuddy's Root Beer Schnapps
0.25oz demerara syrup
2 dashes Angostura
0.25oz water
Tip: Why the spiral on your bar spoon matters for pouring anything carbonated without losing the bubbles.
