I have a last-minute post for your Memorial Day barbecues! This is barbecue sauce that young and old will enjoy. It taste just enough like root beer that your guests will know something taste familiar, but they will not quite be able to put their finger on it. You will find the root beer concentrate near the extracts in your store.
