This classic mixed drink is much like a New Orleans Fizz. The Gin Fizz has a very light sour citrus flavor unlike the orange of the New Orleans version.
INGREDIENTS:
- 2 oz gin
- dash of lemon or lime juice
- 1/2 tsp superfine sugar
- 1 oz sour mix
- 1 egg white (optional)
- soda water
- maraschino cherry for garnish
PREPARATION:
- Pour the gin, juice, sugar, sour mix and egg white into a shaker filled with ice.
- Shake vigorously. More than usual if using the egg white to ensure it is mixed thoroughly with the other ingredients.
- Strain into a chilled highball glass with ice cubes.
- Top off with soda water.
- Garnish with a cherry.
