History
*Rookie's Root Beer has been hand crafted, in our Burlington home kitchen since 2005. *We use premium ingredients such as licorice, wintergreen, sassafras, vanilla, molasses, and evaporated cane juice (which is natural, organic, and unrefined). *We do not use any corn sugar or caffeine. *Little history about us. We are a husband and wife team that started out as a catering company seven years ago and sold our wares at Farmers' Markets. We did a lot of concert, corporate, holiday catering. Then we decided one day to bring some homemade root beer to the Farmers' Market to compliment our food and it was very well received from day one. Dave used his beer home brewing skills and his culinary background to come up with the very delicious root beer recipe that we serve today.
