Hey Willy, what inspired you to create this amazing cocktail?

The inspiration behind this cocktail is the City of Minneapolis. The Bootleg Cocktail is a classic Minneapolis cocktail, beloved by all, and has been around for many generations. It is a minty, citrusy, refreshing cocktail typically enjoyed in summer. This Remix brings it into the cold winter months, so the Bootleg is enjoyed year-round. The addition of Jägermeister split base with Bourbon is a beautiful cold weather base tapping into those baking spices and beautiful winter botanicals of Jägermeister. Combining citrus and local maple to balance and add body with the mint to freshen the cocktail up is an incredible winter refreshing experience.
