Ramos Gin Fizz Cocktail
The Ramos Gin Fizz cocktail is a frothy drink that originated in New Orleans and was previously known as the New Orleans Fizz cocktail. It was eventually renamed in honour of its creator, Henry C. Ramos. This gin-based drink has a light, airy texture that is almost dessert-like and is traditionally served without ice in a tall Collins glass, to highlight its foamy top.

Tips & Suggestions
Preparation Tip 1
The rich, silky mouthfeel of the drink will be weakened if too much soda is added, as this may collapse the foam.
Preparation Tip 2
Simple syrup provides clear, balanced sweetness without overpowering the floral aromas, so avoid using sweeteners like flavoured syrups.
