RootBeer - Need Some Ideas
#10
  Re: (...)
Tad of background - our neighbor has just opened the neatest shop in town. Beer & Wine making supplies and cheese making supplies and kits. When Roy told him he was making a cheese press for me, Joe thought that would be great to offer in his shop. So, Roy just called on his quest for a container to build the press to fit.

Rootbeer bottles are exactly what he wants - so I'm going to have 32 oz. of rootbeer to do something with. I just braised some ribs in it a couple weeks ago, so really looking for something else.

I can google - but if anyone has a T & T idea, I would love to hear about it. Thanks.

EDITED TO ADD: I misunderstood Roy on the size - I now have 135.20 oz. of Rootbeer.

Mix together one 14-ounce can of condensed milk per 24 fluid ounces of root beer and run it through your ice-cream maker.

Haven't done this in ages. It's pretty good, although my preferences are for creamier ice cream. I HAVE seen a couple more=typical ice-cream recipes for root beer, but they called for just the concentrate/extract - not already-drinkable root beer.

Either way, you don't have to use ALL of the root beer you have, so you could make just a small batch of this as the "sorbet" for a meal.
If blueberry muffins have blueberries in them, what do vegan muffins have?

I hate root beer, so I'll be no help. Although, there was a really good BBQ sauce a while back. I remember that I was reluctant until Erin, I think, told be it was not that strong of a flavor in the sauce. Good luck!

Thanks Labs - I'll make that first thing in the a.m. I was thinking of ice cream/sorbet a few minutes ago and you came thru!!!!

My Michael would simply suggest root beer floats. He had one today. Diet root beer, low fat ice cream.

That's funny, first thing Roy said when he came home with the Root Beer - why didn't I buy ice cream??????

Seems to me I read somewhere about a rootbeer reduction that was used as a ham glaze.

Gosh I am no help at all. I drink it on very rare occasions I drink it, and never will it touch ice-cream!
