Nutrition Facts are only an Estimate
Reducing Root Beer- The root beer will bubble right away as you pour it into the saucepan. This is just the gases rising to the surface
- To get root beer to a boiling point, it will probably take about 5 minutes
- Once it is at a boiling point - start your timer. It will take 10-15 minutes of boiling to reduce
- The reduced color will be much darker and the liquid will be slightly thicker
