Quick Homemade Root Beer

Ingredients:


1 tsp. active dry yeast
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 tsp. root beer extract
Warm water

Directions:

In 1-gallon jar, dissolve yeast in 1 cup warm water. Add sugar and root beer extract with enough warm water to dissolve thoroughly. Stir until dissolved. Fill jar with water and set in the sun or a warm place for several hours or until strong enough for taste. Cool.

Note: Root beer can be made in the morning and be ready to drink by noon.

This is really good and can be bottled.......with a certain amount of caution.
My father used to make it for us kids and every once in awhile - after a few days storage in the cool cellar, the root beer would pop it's cork and explode with the messiest aftermath!! Just avoid flying corks!!:):):)
