Been playing with Root for several months now. I like it, although a little of it goes a long way in a cocktail. It's not schnapps or liqueur - it's full on 80 proof Root Beer Whiskey. We're serving it at the restaurant as a digestif. More info is available on the video HERE.

Back in July, I won the Root Cocktail Competition that was sponsored by Art in the Age and hosted at Silk City, here in Philly. The bonded applejack was one of the only things I found that stood up to the Root in a cocktail. The folks at AitA were also gracious enough to invite me to guest bartend at the Root Cocktails Pairing Dinner at ALFA where we enjoyed Root cocktails expertly paired by Chef Sean Ford. It was a really fun event and I had a great time.

My Garden Gnome trophy now lives in a lovely landscaped garden in my friend's back yard in North Cape May, NJ. He's guarding the fish in the koi pond. :smile:
