I love it! Tastes a bit like dark chocolate.

Which is fine. But I ran out of ginger ale and had some root beer and tried it and it was good.

I still remember her shocked look of surprise!
I think we still had an actual 'ice box' at the time. My brothers remember getting slivers of ice from the ice man when he delivered the new block of ice. Note, we lived close to downtown Tulsa at the time.

I do remember we used to walk to the five & dime to get fresh sugar cane. That was some tasty stuff.
