**Full Disclosure: I received the Mr. Rootbeer Root Beer Kit in exchange for this post. All opinions are my own.
This year, my goal is to give my kids unique gifts. I want more interactive gifts and not more toys that sill sit around untouched. The Mr. Rootbeer Root Beer Kit is something that fits that category.
About Mr. Rootbeer Root Beer Kit:
With the Mr. Root Beer Kit you will be able to produce two gallons of delicious old-fashioned root beer in as little as three days! It’s easy to use and fun for the whole family. Since Mr. Root Beer is naturally carbonated it will give you less fizz and more of a smoother creamier root beer taste. The kit will included everything you need to make two gallons of root beer in no time at all.
Mr. Root Beer Root Beer Kit comes with:
2 Packets Root Beer Mix
2 Packets Flavor Crystals
1 Packet Root Beer Yeast
1 Packet No-Rinse Cleanser
4 Plastic 1-liter Bottles (PET)
4 Bottle Caps and Gaskets
1 Plastic Funnel
4 Root Beer Bottle Labels
1 Easy to follow Instructions/Science Fun
You’ll also need:
2 Cups White Granulated Sugar*
1 Cup Dark Brown Sugar
1 Gallon Container with Lid (water jug)
4 Quart Mixing Bowl (with spout if possible)
1/4 tsp and 1 Tbsp Measuring Spoons
Mixing Spoon
Measuring Cup
Mr. Rootbeer mixes are designed specifically to be carbonated in the bottle. Due to this carbonation process your root beer contains trace amounts of alcohol (about 1% ABW). Mr. Rootbeer is kosher and does not contain any gluten, caffeine, nuts or dairy.
My kids are receiving the root beer kit for Christmas so I can’t tell you how it worked for us (yet). But I can tell you I am super excited about making root beer with the boys!

Would you gift a root beer kit for the holidays?
Angela S says
Old fashioned root beer is good stuff, and I had no idea you could make your own. The kids would really get a kick out of this.

Root Beer yeast? So this really is OLD FASHIONED SASPARILLA?(sp) I think I’m going to have to get one of these to do with my daughter over Christmas break. This looks like so much fun,and while I’ve almost completely eliminated soda from my diet, for this, I will make an exception!
Digna D. says
This is a great idea! My son really likes root beer and would love this kit. I will have to look into getting this for him for Christmas.
Chelle @ Oh Just Stop Already says
I’m very intrigued on this gift! I think I would love it more than the kids. Root Beer is so delicious especially when added with ice cream.
Lynsey @MoscatoMom says
Oh my girls LOVE root beer. I bet they would LOVE this. I am not a fan, so I never buy it – but how stinkin cool would it be to MAKE it?!
Sara Phillips says
I like root beer, but only certain brands. But my boys LOVE root beer and I agree, it’s going to be SO much fun to MAKE it!
Stephanie says
