History

This Margarita has liquorice-forward herbal notes alongside surprising bright citrus.

Jeffrey Morgenthaler, present that night, brought the Jägerita back with him to Portland, Oregon. He later wrote about the experience and David's unusual Margarita on JeffreyMorgenthaler.com. By 2014, it had earned a spot on the opening menu of his bar, Pépé Le Moko. Morgenthaler's endorsement has since helped the Jägerita achieve the status of a contemporary classic.
