Cool Find: Dandelion and Burdock


I found this in World Market today, love it, its a traditional soda in the UK, heres the history, I stems back from 1265! it is traditional made from fermented dandelion and burdock roots and is naturally fizzy. Most of them don't actually contain the real think just artificial flavors like Ginger ale!, but this one has the real stuff in it.

Go on try it a shot I know your curious!

  8. Is a strange tasting drink, it reminds me slightly of the taste of American root beer.

  11. Count me in for anything with dandelion and burdock; I love their flavors, and they have amazing health-supportive properties too. I'm going to look for this drink here in nyc - it must be somewhere!
