I generally don't drink soft drinks. But when I do, I don't drink Coke. I don't drink Pepsi. I do drink root beer. The first two leave my mouth tasting like I've been sucking on a sugar cube laced with gasoline. Root beer leaves a nice, clean aftertaste. On a hot day (or even on a cold day) a root beer float (see recipe for Black Cow above) is pure ambrosia.

It is a truly Klingon drink!
