Fantastic!
Its 33% to the standard's 35% but otherwise this one tops it in every way.
It's less syrupy than regular. It just a hint less herbal. It's got ginger but quality ginger so it comes through with a touch of delicious spice youd expect from real ginger. It's cheap, tasty, and can be drank regularly with a bit of creativity.
The Berlin mule is the drink you want to drink this with:
1)Chill a glass, add ice (mule or pint glass depending on apetite)
2) juice half a lime over ice, add a shot (mule glass) or almost two shots (pint) of Scharf
3)top with quality ginger beer (Gosling/Q/CnB/barritts/etc)
4)gentle stir in glass, garnish with small piece of lime in glass
Drop of grenadine at the very end is optional but may help some of your less tart/sour-inclined company to enjoy what I find is easily the best mule I've ever had.
Yes, best. You could frost a copper mug and use Tito's with Q ginger and I'd still probably like this one better. The Jager Scharf gives a Berlin Mule something a Moscow wishes it had. I cant go back.
Jager is delicious in many cocktails. Check YouTube for the surfer on acid variant with it, the 'Jageroni' negroni and 'Jagerita' marg are also very popular. I can personally attest the jagerita is delicious.
Everything wrong with jager grown-up in all the best ways. Grab some!
