Sarsaparilla recipe

spingers

Does anyone know of a recipe for sarsaparilla or a good website for recipes? Any search I do either brings up root beer or sites where you can buy sarsaparilla.
Thanks in advance

I thought root beer was essentially a sarsaparilla based drink?

ie made from sarsaparilla root = root beer. No?

To follow up my own post, I asked an american friend and this is what they had to say:-

They're not altogether different TASTING but, 'root beer' is made from at least three roots (one of which is sarsaparilla) and 'sarsaparilla' is made only from sarsaparilla-root.

So although they're different you might get somewhere close by following a root beer recipe and just using more sarsaparilla instead of whatever other roots are listed...?

thanks, I found the whole root beer/sarsaparilla thing very confusing, I will give it a go, cheers.
