The Royal Gin Fizz belongs to the esteemed Fizz family, known for their refreshing bubbly nature. Though its exact origin is unclear, its name suggests a royal connection, likely emerging in the Victorian era when gin cocktails were highly popular.
The Royal Gin Fizz is a refreshing and complex cocktail. The gin’s juniper and botanical notes are balanced by the tartness of lemon and sweetness of powdered sugar. The egg white adds a velvety texture and subtle richness, while the carbonated water provides a lively effervescence. The overall effect is a delightful blend of tart, sweet, and floral flavors with a smooth and creamy mouthfeel.
For a perfect Royal Gin Fizz, use a good quality gin for maximum flavor. Freshly squeeze your lemon juice for bright acidity. Dry shake the gin, lemon, sugar, and egg white vigorously to emulsify and create a frothy head. Don’t overshake, or you’ll get a bitter taste. Shake again with ice to chill the drink. Top with carbonated water gently, allowing it to settle on top of the foam.
