The soda fountain also offers a hand mixed Sarsaparilla.  This soft drink from the 1800’s was popular in the “Old West”.  At the Miners diner it is made with rootbeer, wintergreen, and sassafras oil.  It looks like a dark  like “rooter”.  Native Americans also used it to treat the common cold.

So if you’re a pioneer of nostalgia, you will find it here in Julian, and maybe you’ll be lucky enough to strike some gold of your own. 🙂
