Army Green

The Army Green is a bold and adventurous shot that brings together three distinct spirits: Goldschlager, Jägermeister, and tequila. Each ingredient contributes its own unique flavor profile, making this shot a complex and intriguing choice for those who enjoy a robust drinking experience. Goldschlager, with its cinnamon spice and shimmering gold flakes, adds a touch of sweetness and warmth. Jägermeister, a German herbal liqueur, brings a rich, earthy complexity with notes of anise, citrus, and a blend of 56 different herbs and spices. Tequila provides a strong, sharp kick, with its agave-forward character adding depth and a bit of a bite to the mix.

The history of the Army Green is not well-documented, as it is more of a contemporary creation likely born in the realm of college bars and parties, where mixing potent spirits in shots is a popular trend. The name "Army Green" might refer to the drink's murky, olive-like color once the ingredients are combined, echoing the green hues often associated with military uniforms. This shot is favored by those looking for a powerful and memorable experience, and it serves as a testament to the creativity and experimentation found within modern mixology.

This drink style is classified as a Shot and is Alcoholic, so drink responsibly! The recommended glass type for this drink is a Shot Glass. We say, feel free to serve it in whatever you have available; it will still taste the same :)

You may also use different variations of the same ingredient. For example, you could change up fruit types or sugar substitutes. Other substitutions would include different brands of liquor. For example, if your drink calls for a specific type of whiskey, you could try using bourbon instead of Irish.
