Jägermeister typically contains 35% alcohol by volume, which makes it a strong liqueur but weaker than most straight distilled spirits (which are usually around 40% ABV or higher). It’s classified as a herbal liqueur, often consumed in small shots or mixed in drinks, and its flavor is notable for the blend of herbs and spices that give it a distinctive, bittersweet profile. In terms of strength, the 35% ABV translates to about 70 proof in the US system.

If you’re considering practical implications:

• A standard serving (1.5 oz or 44 ml) delivers roughly the same amount of alcohol as a typical shot of many spirits, though sugar content is high due to the liqueur’s recipe, which can affect calories and sweetness.

• Serving suggestions vary from neat shots to mixers in cocktails like Jägerbombs or with cola, depending on personal preference and tolerance.
