Root beer update

This morning the bottle of root beer was hard so I put it in the fridge for a few hours and then, after a lengthy period of bleeding off excess carbon dioxide, gave it a try. I think it turned out quite well!

No video this time but here are some photos:

Yes, between the brown sugar and the honey I thought it would be pretty dark, but it's more yellow. Makes me wonder why commercial root beers are so brown.

If you look you'll see a strip of lemon zest floating in the glass of root beer, slightly behind the straw.
