U-Boot is a German cocktail consisting of beer and a shot glass filled with vodka that is sunk into the pint glass. The shot of vodka dropped in beer resembles a submarine, hence the name of the cocktail. There are varieties of U-Boot which are popular in Poland, Netherlands (Duikboot), Macedonia (Podmornica), and Mexico (Submarino).
MAIN INGREDIENTS
Jagertee is a warming combination of rum, black tea, citrus fruit, and winter spices such as cinnamon and cloves. Traditionally, the drink was made with the so-called inländer or domestic rum, which included various flavorings and colorings to imitate the flavor of genuine Caribbean rum.
Apart from standard ingredients, the drink often includes fruit brandies, other spirits, and citrus zest. Jagertee is often made at home, but commercial varieties are also available, as well as the pre-made mixture of sugar and spices, which is then added to rum and tea.

Jägerbomb is a German mixed drink that was originally made by dropping a shot of Jägermeister into a glass of beer, but the drink has evolved, and today it is usually prepared by combining Red Bull energy drink and a shot of Jägermeister.
When mixed with Red Bull, due to the effect of caffeine in the drink, there have been many reports of hospitalized people after excessive consumption of modern Jägerbombs. Nowadays, there are a few more variations on the drink, such as the Jäger-Train, the Jäger-Ring, Turbo Jägerbomb, and Atomic Jägerbomb.
MAIN INGREDIENTS
Swimming Pool is a German cocktail that is similar to Piña Colada. The cocktail combines equal parts vodka and white rum, pineapple juice, heavy cream, coconut cream, and blue Curaçao. To prepare the cocktail, all the ingredients except blue Curaçao are shaken with ice, and the mix is then poured into a glass filled with fresh crushed ice.
Some versions are also blended with ice. A splash of blue Curaçao is added last, and it should only partially color the drink. Lastly, it is garnished with a pineapple wedge. Swimming Pool was created by a German bartender Charles Schumann.
He probably invented it at the American Bar in Munich, and it most likely originated in the 1970s.
MAIN INGREDIENTS
Gin Basil Smash is a contemporary classic created in 2008 by Jörg Meyer at Le Lion in Hamburg. The cocktail combines gin, basil, lemon juice, and simple syrup. To make the cocktail, basil is first muddled with lemon juice and simple syrup in a shaker.
Next, gin and ice are added to the shaker, and the combination is shaken until chilled. The cocktail is then strained into an old-fashioned glass filled with fresh ice and garnished with a basil sprig. Gin Basil Smash was inspired by Dale DeGroff's Whiskey Smash, the whiskey-based cocktail from The Bartenders Guide.
