The Jägerbomb /ˈjeɪɡərˌbɒm/ is a bomb mixed drink made by dropping a shot of Jägermeister into an energy drink, typically Red Bull. Sometimes, this drink is incorrectly identified as a traditional "shot".[1]
Commercial preparation
An energy drink, usually Red Bull, is poured into a pint glass of beer and separately accompanied by Jägermeister in a shot glass. The glass of Jägermeister is then dropped into the Red Bull.
History
It is widely accepted that Canadian traveler, Tobey Pratte, along with 2 American firefighters from Denver, Colorado concocted the bomb shot now known as the Jägerbomb. Upon a stop at Winnies a bar in Queenstown, New Zealand in January 2002 the trio decided to experiment with a variant of the then popular drop shot known as the Gladiator and a vodka Red Bull cocktail. Pratte suggested dropping a shot of Jägermeister into a partially filled glass of Red Bull thus sparking the popularity of the now widely known drop shot, the Jägerbomb.
Jäger-train
A Jäger-train is a theatrical method for preparing the drinks when multiple Jägerbombs have been ordered. Glasses of Red Bull are lined up, and an empty glass is placed at one end. Shot glasses of Jägermeister are then balanced on the lips of the glasses. The first shot glass (which is on the empty-glass end) is pushed over; it falls into the Red Bull in the next glass and—if the glasses are correctly positioned—it will simultaneously knock over the next shot glass, thus a domino effect will be created, causing each shot glass to fall into a glass of Red Bull.[2][3] In order for the trick to work, the shot glasses need to be tall enough (or drink glasses narrow enough) so that one shot glass knocks over the next shot glass in the line. The train can also be arranged into a Jäger-ring that completes itself.
