7/12..... Sneaking in to drool at Butterbeer!!!
I've never won anything in my life
You funny!I have heard a lot of people say that. I often wonder if it's not just a state of mind. No one owes me anything, least of all some vendor just starting out and busting his .... trying to make a living. But if he's going to give away samples to sell us on his product and thereby gain repeat business, then you have as good a chance as the next person. Want to increase those odds? Say, "I am a winner" until you believe it, then you will be. If you never believe it, you never will be.
Yeah, Mr. 10 bottle winner!!!!!I have heard a lot of people say that. I often wonder if it's not just a state of mind.

I remember the old A&W, friend! Just drive up and roll your window down, LOL. Order into the speaker and in no time flat, a car hop would SKATE to your car with your order and hang the tray of food on your window.

7/11
I was just wondering: WHICH root beer? The flavor of A&W is radically different from Barq's, etc.
OK, here's the "official" recipe:
BUTTERBEER
Start to finish: 1 hour (10 minutes active)
Servings: 4
1 cup light or dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons water
6 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cider vinegar
3/4 cup heavy cream, divided
1/2 teaspoon rum extract
Four 12-ounce bottles cream soda
In a small saucepan over medium, combine the brown sugar and water. Bring to a gentle boil and cook, stirring often, until the mixture reads 240 F on a candy thermometer.
Stir in the butter, salt, vinegar and 1/4 heavy cream. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
Once the mixture has cooled, stir in the rum extract.
In a medium bowl, combine 2 tablespoons of the brown sugar mixture and the remaining 1/2 cup of heavy cream. Use an electric mixer to beat until just thickened, but not completely whipped, about 2 to 3 minutes.
To serve, divide the brown sugar mixture between 4 tall glasses (about 1/4 cup for each glass). Add 1/4 cup of cream soda to each glass, then stir to combine. Fill each glass nearly to the top with additional cream soda, then spoon the whipped topping over each.

However, I suspect the root beer version available here will vape better.
