Vintage Wordplay
Did You Know?
Root beer was originally made from sassafras root bark! Modern root beer typically uses artificial sassafras flavoring. The drink was invented in the 1840s and became popular as a non-alcoholic alternative to beer. Trees absorb water through their roots, making this pun perfectly planted! A mature tree's roots can extend two to three times wider than its canopy.
