\nWhile Laurie<\/strong> and I were in Pagosa Springs we stumbled upon (after looking for a good 15 minutes) a small micro-brewery<\/a> that was simply awesome.
\nIt had a great atmosphere, friendly staff and we got a personal tour by the owner and founder. Not bad for a Wednesday afternoon.
\nI told Laurie<\/strong> we should open our own micro-brewery in Waxahachie. I don’t think she was super thrilled with the idea. Although she did enjoy the root beer Pagosa Brewing Company made.
\nNow, Open Cola has released their “secret” formula so that you too can make your own soda.

The formulas that make up Coke and Pepsi are closely guarded trade secrets – perhaps the most popular and well known trade secrets in existence today. If you want to drink a Cola, you gotta shell out the big bucks (literally, these days) for one of the big guys.
\nOpenCola is working to change that, having released their Cola formula under the GNU license. Now you can start your own underground neighborhood Cola brewery and give the sauce to your friends and family. The inventors of the drink (is inventors the right word here?) invite people to come a change the formula in hopes of making a more perfect beverage.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So now we just need a root beer recipe<\/del> and a contract with Blue Bell Ice Cream and we can open our own soda shop.
\nWah-la.
\nHere’s a recipe for root beer too<\/a>.
\nGet the formula here<\/A>
\nOh and as DIY:happy points out:<\/p>\n
