Yes. I did not even know about it until just then. I never tried to post that fast.

It seems like every time I get on the useless thread there running for a hundred mark and I miss it every time. Although this time I thank I was running and everyone else was walking.

The drink of the moment around here is a Jagermeister shot dropped in a glass of Redbull. I tried one, I looked like BBR drinking the Rumplemintz. The Jager tastes like Vicks formula 44 cough syrup, the Redbull tastes like Alka-Seltzer. You should try it......Mrs. goofy

1) Redbull is so nasty

2) I used to do a shot called an "Oil Slick", which is Jagermeister and Rumplemintz together. This was "my shot" when we would be out at bars, and I did it more than I should have lets just say

3) Two years ago I was in Germany in Epcot with family and bought a shot of Jagermeister at the food stand (only place, minus bars, that I know actually sells shots in any Disny park...lol).

4) About two seconds before I took the shot (with my hot dog and sauerkraut), my mom commented that it smelled like cough syrup.

5) I took the shot, and almost instantly gagged, cause all I could think of was cough syrup (I have a thing about cough syrup, can't stand the taste). Note: I never had a problem doing Jagermeister shots before this.

6) I haven't touched the stuff since, and I can't even think of Jagermeister anymore without thinking of cough syrup.

7) Thanks Mom.

Oh, and if you ever want to try something exciting, order an "Irish Car Bomb" at the Rose and Crown English Pub in Epcot.

1/2 shot of Irish Whiskey (Jamesons), topped with 1/2 shot of Bailey's Irish Cream
1/2 pint of chilled Guiness

Drop shot into mug, and chug (quickly).

You're bound to get some hoots and hollers from nearby patrons, and it's a great "group activity"....lol

At 6 am?

Breakfast of Champions.

Go a funny about Jagermeister. I too used to enjoy a shot of jager now and then

DW is German so we visit Germany once a year and have been doing this since 1988.

I remember a trip back around '92 or so where Jager was literally in every bar w/Jager girls etc. I thought this was pretty cool and was expecting the same treatment when I went to Germany.

Imagine my surprise when I got to Nurnberg ......went to a bar and asked for a shot of jager....... the bartender, patrons, even my wife's relatives looked at me like I was crazy......

Apparently, they mainly use Jager for mouthwash in their part of Bavaria (can't vouch for the rest of the country). Later, I even saw it at the grocery store there......near the check-out counter.....next to a bottle of Listerine....

Yes, that's right. I ordered a minty fresh shot of "Scope" at the bar......

It's taken a while for that to fall from the memory of my hard-drinking German relations......

 

[2goofycampers]

What is a Whelsh Dragon? Green beer?

peach snapps, melon liquer, cream d mint, orange & pineapple juice. Go easy on the cream d mint or it tastes like medicine. a sweet, smooth, delicious drink.....

 

[Colson39]

hah, that's a great story! I'm not surprised it's used as mouth wash, now that I finally realized what it actually tastes like...lol.

It's kind of like when people go to Australia and wonder why everyone isn't drinking Fosters. Gotta love that Outback marketing...lol

that is so funny, our neighbor drinks a $50.00 bottle of mouthwash every weekend.

Oh good, its not beer. I'll give it a whirl next time~sounds good!



MrMan~ That story is hilarious! My DH is going to Nuremberg in a couple months. I'll have to let him in on the mouthwash secret!

Yeah, I remember that from when I was there (Bavaria) in the 60s. Seems to me there was something called Rastiputz too that was really nasty. That's not the right name though becuase I can't find anything when I google it. I remember that it was terrible though.

Thats called a JaegerBomb(not to be confused with Colson's Irish Car Bomb)...very popular right now.

I used to do a shot when I was a kid that consisted of dropping a shotglass of Ameretto into a mug of beer and chugging it....taste just like Dr Pepper.

I dont like the taste of alcohol...but Ive always thought Jaeger tasted like black jellybeans,......thats one shot I DO like the taste of. But its been compared to liquid valium...and it does make me very sleepy.

That Welsh Dragon sounds kinda tasty.
