🥃 Stroh Jagertee
Stroh hot drink concentrate with Inländer Rum, black tea extracts and essences; 40% ABV (80 proof). Diluted with hot water, it is Austria's ski-hut classic.
Stroh Jagertee is a hot drink concentrate from the Austrian Stroh brand, the kind of warming mug people associate with après-ski. According to the producer, it contains Stroh Inländer Rum, black tea extracts and selected essences. Spirit Radar gives its strength as 40% ABV (80 proof). The producer links the drink to Austrian ski-lodge huts.
The producer describes an old family recipe. To prepare it, one part of concentrate is mixed with four parts of hot water, depending on the desired strength; a 0.5 l bottle yields about 2.5 l, roughly ten cups. In summer the producer suggests mixing it with cold orange juice and serving it with ice. The composition of the essences and the ageing are not disclosed by the sources.
Why this matters to you. This is not a classic rum but a base for a hot drink, so dilute it according to the producer's instructions rather than drinking it like a strong spirit. You can compare it with Stroh 60 and Stroh 40, which are used in your own recipes. The WHO reminds us that there is no safe level of alcohol consumption.
