Tips:

  • Use a higher-proof gin. The traditional Ramos Gin Fizz recipe calls for London dry gin, but you can use any type of gin you like. However, a higher-proof gin will give the drink a stronger flavor.
  • Shake the drink vigorously. This is essential for creating a smooth, frothy texture. Shake the drink for at least 30 seconds, or until the ice is completely broken up.
  • Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the drink will taste. If you can, use fresh lemon juice, lime juice, and orange juice.
  • Don't skimp on the cream. The cream is what gives the Ramos Gin Fizz its signature creamy texture. Use heavy cream or half-and-half, and make sure it's cold before you add it to the drink.
  • Garnish the drink with a twist of lemon or lime. This adds a pop of color and flavor to the drink.
