Alcohol is the ultimate gathering tool. No matter what event you have coming up, you can almost always bet on a good drink (unless it is a baby shower; then maybe not). From the moment I joined the United States Army, I became quite familiar with the presence of Jagermeister. It was a constant pillar of our get-togethers for two main reasons. The first was that we didn’t make a lot of money, and it has always been one of the more accessible liquors when we walked down the booze aisles of the Class 6 (picture a 711 on a military post). The second reason is that it is the perfect shot drink. It never needed a mixer. It is designed to be poured as a shot straight from the freezer. However, Jager is also versatile enough to make some great cocktails. Now, the brand dropped the perfect summer upgrade with an orange twist.

The perfect summer upgrade
Summer cocktails have something about them that scream light and airy. More refreshing flavors, a smoothness that ditches the heft of a winter drink. And similar to summer scents, citrus is one of the ingredients that assists in that endeavor. The new Jagermeister Orange includes the oils of three Sicilian oranges, delivering vibrant freshness and a modern taste experience at 33% ABV. Swap the original out with this version for the Jagerita (Combine 2 oz Jagermeister Orange, 1 oz fresh lime juice, and 0.75 oz Cointreau (or triple sec) with simple syrup, shaken and served up with a lime wheel), the Surfer on Acid (Shake equal parts (1 oz each) Jagermeister Orange, white or aged rum, and pineapple juice with a splash of simple syrup or orgeat, served over ice), or the Jagermeister Olf Fashioned (Stir 1 oz Jagermeister Orange, 1 oz rye whiskey, 1 barspoon maple syrup, and a dash of pimento or aromatic bitters over ice)
“With Jagermeister Orange, we’re introducing a new flavor experience that captures that same spirit of connection and energy, now with a fresh citrus profile. Its’tasteemobodies thefreedom and spontaneityof summer,whenever you want it.”
