Root Beer

2 cups sugar
1 oz. of root beer extract (found in spice section of select grocery stores)
1 gallon of cold water
2 lbs. of dry ice (it’s best to buy the dry ice on the day you plan to use it)

**Use a plastic container & never put a lid on it.

Start by pouring one gallon of water in a large container (or plastic cauldron), followed by two cups of sugar and one ounce of root beer extract.
Once the sugar is dissolved, add two pounds of dry ice, broken into smaller pieces. The bubbling mixture will become carbonated and ready to serve when all the dry ice has fully vaporized.  

Add ice cream for a special root beer float that kids of all ages will love.
