Okay...I've counted. In the last week (actually, since Thursday), I've had about 5 4-packs of sarsaparilla. (I think I've had 17, really, as I gave one to a friend and two to my siblings).

Man, if there was such a thing as heaven in a bottle for kids under 21, this would be it. Fo' sho'.

But this calls for the age old question... root beer, or sarsaparilla?

We can get really really really good sarsaparilla here. It comes all thick in a bottle and you just add water. Granted, it's not the fizzy drink you get in civilization, but dagnabbit, it's sooooooo good. It's like a [Party] in my mouth. [Big Grin]

Yeah, could do. Just hadn't thought about it. Mostly cuz I'm not much of a fizzy drink drinker.

I think that must be part of the fun of living overseas - perfecting a root beer or sasparilla recipe (we used tonic water for ours).

But we have all sorts of weird stuff - relatively speaking - to drink here. Like Nelli. Oh, and tropical juices are so common here - but that only makes sense since I live in the tropics - like mango, papaya, pineapple, guava, or passion fruit juice. Mmmm. Mango. My favorite.

Oh, and for fizzy drinks - my favorite is Portello. Yumm.
