There is a reason that root beer is called root beer. Charles Elmer Hires was the first to successful market a commercial brand. He debuted the drink at the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia in 1876. He was a teetotaler and wanted to call it root tea. He figured, however, that Pennsylvania coal miners would more likely buy the product if he called it root beer

And that is why it’s called root beer.
