Sarsaparilla Root
$3.00 – $21.12
Sarsaparilla Root is well known for its use in flavoring drinks, aka root beer!
Folklore has sarsaparilla root being used in the 1490’s as the primary ingredient in the treatment of “the French Disease” or what we now call syphilis. It was commonly used to treat coughs and colds by the Native American peoples, who made a soothing tea using Sarsaparilla roots to calm sore throats and clear stuffy noses.
As the name suggests, Mexican Sarsaparilla is found in Southern Mexico, but it is also distributed throughout South America, particularly in El Salvador, Guatemala and Belize.
While the root is sometimes used in tea blends, it is traditionally used to produce liquid extracts for use in flavoring beverages, baked goods and confections.
