Tasting Notes

The Ramos Gin Fizz is a creamy, citrusy, and floral gin cocktail with a light, airy texture that makes it unlike any other fizz-style drink. The fresh lemon and lime juices provide a bright tartness, balanced by simple syrup for sweetness. The egg white and heavy cream create a rich, velvety smoothness, while orange flower water adds a delicate floral aroma. The soda water provides a refreshing, effervescent finish, making this cocktail light yet indulgent.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Add gin, lemon juice, lime juice, simple syrup, orange flower water, egg white, and heavy cream to a shaker.
  • Shake vigorously without ice for about 10 seconds.
  • Add ice to the shaker and shake again until well chilled.
  • Strain the mixture into a Collins glass filled with ice.
  • Top with soda water and give it a gentle stir.
  • Garnish with a lemon twist if desired.
  • Enjoy your drink.

Pro Tips

  • Use fresh lemon and lime juice for the best balance of acidity.
  • Dry shaking first (without ice) is essential for achieving a frothy, creamy texture.
  • Shake the second time (with ice) for at least 15-20 seconds to ensure the drink is properly chilled.
  • Let the drink sit for 30 seconds before adding soda water to allow the foam to settle and rise.
  • For an extra fluffy texture, shake for 1 full minute, or use a milk frother to pre-emulsify the egg white.

When to Serve

The Ramos Gin Fizz is perfect for brunch, spring and summer gatherings, cocktail enthusiasts who love creamy drinks, and anyone looking for a unique, elegant refreshment. It’s a classic New Orleans cocktail, making it great for Mardi Gras celebrations or an elevated happy hour.

Which Liquor Brands to Choose

For the best results, use a London Dry gin like Beefeater, Tanqueray, or Bombay Sapphire. Fee Brothers or Nielsen-Massey Orange Flower Water are excellent for that floral touch. High-quality fresh eggs and heavy cream will ensure the creamiest texture.
