The ant that entered your cup of root beer was most likely a sugar ant. They are attracted to sugar and it is harmless. Some people consider ants as a delicacy.

That's the insect equivelant to "Why did the chicken cross the road?"
That's just the way it is. Chickens cross roads, and ants crawl into cups of root beer.

Because root beer has lots of sugar and ants love sugar.

Because they felt like it. I remember once I had some cookies on the desk and some ants crawled on them,i wasnt paying attention and ate them. I finally realized they had ants on them when one bit my finger. What kind of question is this anyway?

Many insects are attracted to sugar, a commonly known fact. But something not so many people know (I'm not sure why) is that many insects are attracted to Carbon Dioxide, something in abundance in any carbonated beverage. Those two factors, as well as possibilities, are big reasons. Chance also comes into play in this case.

Root Beer is sweet so it wanted the sweetness.

Hmm - Could be because rootbeer has a high amount of sugar and they're attracted to sugar?
