More About This Drink

Before jumping into what this crazy lemon-lime Ramos Gin Fizz cocktail recipe is all about, here are some other classic gin mixed drink recipes you'll love: the Classic Gin Martini, the Tom Collins, the Singapore Sling, the Gimlet and the French 75. As for the history of the Ramos Gin Fizz? Well, the Ramos Gin Fizz Wiki notes that “Henry C. Ramos invented the Ramos gin fizz in 1888 at his bar, the Imperial Cabinet Saloon on Gravier Street... [in] New Orleans, Louisiana.” The Ramos Gin Fizz Wiki adds that “Before Prohibition, the drink's popularity and exceptionally long 12-minute mixing time had over 20 bartenders working at the Imperial at once making nothing but the Ramos gin fizz - and still struggling to keep up with demand.” Apparently the Roosevelt Hotel in New Orleans as well as Louisiana Governor Huey Long also helped to make the drink a popular cocktail choice in the early 20th century. So, yeah, the Ramos Gin Fizz is a New Orleans drink through and through. Way to go Louisiana! In terms of the Ramos Gin Fizz’s flavor profile, the Gin Foundry notes that “It’s a pretty little gin cocktail with all the creaminess of a Piña Colada and none of the coconut; only citrus, sugar and vanilla.” That sounds pretty dang mouthwatering, right? Imbibe Magazine adds that “No drink showcases the miraculous shape-shifting nature of egg whites quite like the Ramos Gin Fizz.” So yeah, if you love refreshing vanilla cocktails, cocktails that use egg whites for texture, or just the state of Louisiana and drinking, then try out this Ramos Gin Fizz. Oh, and if you make this Ramos Gin Fizz cocktail recipe and find that you really love it, you'll probably like these variations on the classic: The Frozen Ramos Gin Fizz, the Pink Gin Fizz, and the Raspberry Peach Gin Fizz.
