Root – Organic 80-proof liqueur
By Alex Ion
The folks from Art in the Age decided to turn back the clock and recreate the Root Tea liqueur, based on an early (1700s) Native American dormant recipe. A classic with a rich heritage, Root is deliciously smooth and very aromatic to the palate. Unlike anything else you have ever tasted, the 100% organic spirit is made from wild roots and herbs, with very strong notes of anise, birch, vanilla, citrus and pepper. Perfect as is, with an ice cube in a chilled glass or used as the backbone for a great cocktail, Root is expected to hit Philadelphia liquor stores this week. [aita via selectism]

I love it mixed with Birch root beer. Tomorrow night I'll try mixing it with Guinness.

I mix mine with Rye whiskey and fresh lemon juice and a splash of Raki (anise from Turkey) top with a Marascha Cherry from Luxardo

I absolutely love that stuff, my favourite unusual drink next to absinthe
