Root beer is a dark brown sweet beverage traditionally made using the root or bark of the tree Sassafras albidum (sassafras) or the vine Smilax ornata (sarsaparilla) as the primary flavor.
Also known as a black cow or brown cow, the root beer float is traditionally made with vanilla ice cream and root beer, but can also be made with other flavors. In the United States and Canada, the chain A&W Restaurants are well known for their root beer floats. The definition of a black cow varies by region. For instance in some localities, a root beer float has strictly vanilla ice cream; a float made with root beer and chocolate ice cream is a chocolate cow or a brown cow.. In some places a black cow or a brown cow was made with cola instead of root beer.
