A fluffy and refreshing classic
The Ramos Fizz is an iconic cocktail created in 1888 by Henry C. Ramos in New Orleans. The drink is known for its unique creaminess and soft foam, achieved through a long shaking process. With a base of gin, citrus juice, cream and egg white, the Ramos Fizz is both rich and refreshing, making it a perfect brunch or afternoon drink. It's also a great example of how the art of the cocktail can unite taste and texture.
