Sarsaparilla tastes much like sassafras or root beer, with a slightly sharper, more earthy flavor and a little like licorice. It’s no wonder: sarsaparilla and root beer were among the 50 or so ingredients that went into making the Native American “root tea” later named “root beer.” To make sarsaparilla tea, simply pour a cup of boiling water over a teaspoon or two of sarsaparilla and let sit for about 30 minutes. Then strain and enjoy. Show more
