History:

Adapted from a drink promoted by Jägermeister and inspired by ginger root, one of the 56 herbs and spices that flavour Jägermeister.

Review:

I've used more of the liqueur than suggested by the folk at Jägermeister, as I feel the drink benefits from more of the liqueur's herbal rootyness, which softens the ginger beer's spice.
