How to make Home Brewed Root beer

Hot summer Days give me a craving for Home brewed root beer just like my grandma and aunts used to make for us!

Dissolve 4.5 cups sugar in 2.75 gallons of warm water and then add 2-2.5 oz of root beer extract.
Dissolve 2.5 grams (1/4 tsp) of champagne yeast (or instant yeast) in 1 cup warm water and let set for 5-10 min.
Mix yeast mixture into sugar/water mixture and stir well.
pour into glass jars, fill to 1” head space and turn lids tight.
Set in a warm, 70-80 degrees Fahrenheit, out of direct sunlight, for 4-7 days.
Transfer to refrigerator to chill before serving:

My husband grew up with his mother making home-made root beer. I still have a few of her porcelein flip top root beer bottles that sit above my cabinets in my kitchen. He always reminesces about making some one day. Maybe we will this year. Thanks for the inspiration.

I have to tell you.
I work with a lot of rich people. Seen and experienced a lot of luxury things.
Ive never been jealous of anything I've seen until i found this channel
You are an absolute inspiration.
You make me wish i wasnt in my 50s and could redo the whole thing.

God bless and I pray others can see the truth in what life can be

Wow, I teared up watching this. My dad made us homemade rootbeer and ice cream every summer. That was about 50 years ago.

The end of the video where you are serving ice cream and root beer - it is moments like that, that the kids will forever remember ❤️

What a wonderful mom you are. What treasures are the childhoods, experiences, learning, and memories you’re creating for your sons. Well done, sister. 👏

I’ve had fresh root beer from the Amish in Pennsylvania very good. Those kittens are so cute. Climbing the tree God bless you and your family.❤😊

We bought my husband some root beer extract as a little birthday surprise and he's in the kitchen sterilizing his bottles, excited to make his favorite soft drink.

We live in a ritzy suburb and have a home with a pool, but the houses are too close together for our liking and the property taxes are killing us. We are looking to move out to the country for some privacy, more land, and a slower pace of life in the next few years. Your videos remind me why we want to make the change.

Ok… Now, I’m going to have to try making root beer…

when I was a little girl my Dad would make homemade root beer and put in small soda bottles and seal them up, I believe he stored them in our basement. Fun memories. I make the dry ice root beer with my children when they were young once a year and still do it now that they are grown as tradition.

I love homemade root beer and ginger ale. Champgne yeast works great for both.
