Histori
Sarsaparilla was very popular in the United States in the 19th century. According to an advertisement for patent medicines in that period, it is regarded as a remedy for skin and blood problems. Ruth Tobias notes that it evokes images of "belles lethargy and dry cowboys".
Sarsaparilla is sometimes considered a type of root beer. There are dozens of brands of sarsaparilla beverages made by micro breweries, especially in the United States.

Produced at Walworth Road, London, and available in cake and mash shops in East End London, where it is popular, as well as available in some supermarkets.

The classic American Sarsaparilla is not made from sarsaparilla plant extracts, a tropical wine that is much related to lilies. Originally made of a mixture of birch oil and sassafras, dried root bark from a sassafras tree. Sassafras was widely used as a home remedy in the 19th century - taken in sufficient doses it caused sweating, which some people think has health benefits. Sarsaparilla apparently debuted as a patented, easy-to-take sassafras, just as Coca-Cola was first marketed in 1885 as a remedy for hangovers, headaches and morphine addiction. In addition to the effects of these ingredients, soda was very popular in the United States at the time, due to the belief that carbonated water has health benefits.
