Petunjuk
Prepare all the ingredients on the counter to be able to work well and quickly, especially the cream and egg white. Pour all the ingredients into a shaker. Shake vigorously for 1 minute: cream and egg white must be mixed perfectly, so don't rush. Now open the shaker and put some ice and shake for 1-2 minutes. It depends on how long you can resist! Pour into a highball glass, add a splash of soda and garnish to taste. Ramos Gin Fizz was once drunk as an invigorating drink or even as a breakfast, try it as an aperitif and after dinner and you will discover a little gem now lost.
The Ramos Gin Fizz is one of the most technically demanding classic cocktails, combining gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup, heavy cream, an egg white, vanilla extract, and a small amount of soda water, shaken for an extended period to achieve a luxuriously smooth, frothy texture. It is an IBA Classic and a signature cocktail of New Orleans, celebrated for its silky, creamy mouthfeel and its aromatic floral complexity. The preparation requires vigorous shaking for a minimum of one to two minutes.
History & Origins
The Ramos Gin Fizz was created by Henry C. Ramos at his Imperial Cabinet bar in New Orleans in 1888. The cocktail became so popular and so labour-intensive to prepare that Ramos reportedly employed dozens of shaker boys who would pass the cocktail down a line to achieve the required shaking time. During Mardi Gras 1915, thirty five shaker boys worked continuously to keep up with demand. The recipe remained a closely guarded secret until Ramos published it shortly before Prohibition.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Delicate orange blossom and vanilla with fresh lemon and a clean gin botanical note beneath a cloud of cream foam. Palate: Extraordinarily silky and frothy with a luxurious cream and egg white mouthfeel; gin botanicals emerge subtly from the rich creamy base, lemon juice adds a restrained brightness, and vanilla lends a sweet fragrance. Finish: Creamy, gentle, and extraordinarily smooth with a fading floral and citrus note.
Pro Tip
Shake for at least 90 seconds — ideally two minutes — as insufficient shaking is the most common reason this drink fails to achieve its characteristic cloud-like, ultra-smooth foam texture.
