Dobson Sarsaparilla Lollies

£1.30

Step into a vintage sweet shop with a flavor that defines the "good old days." Dobson’s Sarsaparilla Lollies deliver the bold, spicy, and cooling taste of the traditional root-based brew. It is a sophisticated alternative to standard fruit sweets, offering a deep botanical punch that has remained a British favorite since the Victorian era.

A Journey of Spice & Sweet:

  • The "Root" Profile: Experience a complex blend of wintergreen, licorice, and vanilla notes. It’s a refreshing, "medicinal" sweetness that is both warming and invigorating, perfectly replicating the taste of an ice-cold glass of sarsaparilla cordial.

  • The Dark Mahogany Glow: These lollies boast a stunning, translucent deep-brown hue. Hand-crafted in traditional Yorkshire copper pans, they possess a glass-like finish and a premium clarity that highlights their artisanal quality.

  • The Superior Melt: Designed for the true connoisseur, the heritage boiling process ensures a smooth-as-glass surface that releases its herbal oils slowly, providing a long-lasting and consistent flavor experience.

Why It’s a Nostalgic Necessity:

  • The "Sarsparilla" Kick: Perfect for those who love "black" sweets and aromatic flavors like Aniseed or Dandelion & Burdock. It’s a bold choice that stands out from the crowd.

  • Authentic Heritage: This isn't just a flavor; it’s history on a stick. Dobsons has been perfecting this botanical recipe since 1850, keeping the traditional "apothecary" style of confectionery alive.

  • The Ultimate Palate Awakener: Its unique blend of spices makes it an excellent palate cleanser, leaving a clean, cool sensation that lingers long after the lolly is gone.

The Verdict: It’s spicy, herbal, and wonderfully evocative. If you’re a fan of "root beer" vibes and traditional British cordials, the Dobson’s Sarsaparilla lolly is your ultimate nostalgic escape.
