Steps:
- Put the sassafras and burdock roots, coriander seeds, star anise, and clove in a heavy-bottomed 2-quart saucepan that has a tight-fitting lid.
- Pour the water over the top of the roots and spices and bring to a boil over high heat. Drop the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes.
- Add the molasses, stir, replace the lid, and return to a simmer for 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat, add the wintergreen flavoring or extract, replace the lid and let the mixture cool to room temperature.
- Line a fine-mesh strainer with cheesecloth, place over a large measuring cup with a pouring spout or a pitcher, and pour the cooled infusion into it to strain.
- Do not press on the contents, but let the roots rest in the strainer for about 30 minutes before proceeding. While that strains, rinse the pot used for infusion.
- Measure the sassafras infusion, return it to the rinsed pot and add an equal amount of sugar, by volume, to the pot.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, drop the heat to low and let simmer for 5 minutes. Pour the syrup into canning jars, fix clean, new, 2-piece lids on top and store in the refrigerator up to a year.
- Use 1 tablespoon of syrup over ice to 1 cup of plain seltzer water. Stir gently. Enjoy!

Tips:
- Choose a high-quality root beer: The flavor of your root beer float will depend on the quality of the root beer you use. Look for a root beer that is rich and flavorful, with a strong vanilla flavor and a smooth, creamy texture.
- Use fresh ice cream: Fresh ice cream will make your root beer float more delicious and creamy. Avoid using ice cream that has been sitting in the freezer for a long time, as it will have lost its flavor and texture.
- Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the bottom of the glass: This will help to keep the root beer from getting too watery and will also add a delicious vanilla flavor to the float.
- Pour the root beer over the ice cream slowly: This will help to prevent the ice cream from melting too quickly.
- Top the float with a dollop of whipped cream and a cherry: This will add a festive touch to your float and make it even more delicious.
Conclusion:
Root beer floats are a classic American dessert that is perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With a few simple tips, you can make the perfect root beer float that will be sure to impress your friends and family.
