The springbokkie ("little springbok" in the Afrikaans language) is a cocktail shooter that is popular in South Africa. It is composed of peppermint liqueur and Amarula. The drink derives its name from the South Africa national rugby union team, known as "The Springboks" after the country’s national animal, who traditionally wear green and white. The ratio of Amarula to peppermint liqueur vary substantially between recipes.[1][2][3]
