Buy some root beer extract. The recipe will come with it. In the past I have used Hire's extract and it worked well. It may cost you about $4.00 for enough extract to make 5 gallons. Other than that do a google on root beer extract.

Any wine or beer making store probably carries the extracts, the Birch beer and Sarsparilla are also very good. Probaly about $5 CDN + a few pounds of sugar to make 4 gallons US. The Hires extract is usually available in grocery stores if you hunt long enough.

If you check out the latest edition of Brew Your Own magazine, they have three different recipes, from extract to actual herbs and roots.
Thanks to everyone for their feedbacks. I appreciate the information
