Description
Looking for the best gin cocktail recipe? Try a refreshing Gin Fizz: it’s sweet, tangy, and has a frothy egg white foam topping.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 ounces gin
- 3/4 ounce lemon juice
- 1/2 ounce simple syrup*
- 1 egg white**
- Garnish with lemon twist (optional)
- Soda water
Instructions
- Place the gin, lemon juice, syrup and egg white in a cocktail shaker. Shake vigorously for 15 seconds.
- Fill the shaker with ice and shake for 30 seconds until cold.
- Strain the drink into a glass and top with the soda water; the egg white foam forms on top. If desired, garnish with a lemon twist. Serve immediately.
Notes
*Maple syrup is our favorite substitute for simple syrup in a cocktail; it adds subtle caramel notes without tasting like maple.
**For vegan, substitute 2 tablespoons aquafaba, the liquid from a can of chickpeas.
To convert to ounces, 1 ounce = 2 tablespoons
