How good is this drink? On paper it sounds disgusting, but after the first taste, wow! Currently drinking this in the September heatwave in London and it is perfect. I agree with Chris, this is like a well balanced Cola, just with a nicer herbal kick.

What the hell?! It is SO delicious for what it is. It turns into a more balanced Coca-Cola, with additional interest due to the lime juice and Triple Sec. Ridiculously good. Could be the ultimate US Frat party drink, but then again, they probably wouldn't use fresh limes or Cointreau.

They’d use Margarita mix, and even then, it would probably still be good.

In fact THE perfect summer afternoon / summer night/ nighttime poolparty cocktail, a great cocktail that everybody can agree on. The similarity to an ice-cold Coca-Cola are fascinating, but it’s so much more and better (!). Get over you mixology-attitude y‘all and mix your family&friends some Frozen Jägerita to make them HAPPYYY!

A wonderful surprise. Jäger’s stridency
is wholly transformed into an intense yet refreshing cola-like drink. This would work well in pitchers - and should be a smash on hot summer nights…if we ever get them.
