The Ramos Gin Fizz is a classic cocktail with a rich history dating back to the late 19th century. It was created by Henry C. Ramos at his bar, the Imperial Cabinet Saloon in New Orleans. This iconic drink is a frothy blend of gin, lemon juice, lime juice, sugar, cream, egg white, orange flower water, and soda water. The key to its signature velvety texture is the vigorous shaking process, which can take up to 12 minutes. The cocktail gained popularity at the Roosevelt Hotel in New Orleans, where it was said to require a whole team of bartenders to keep up with the demand. Today, the best versions of this cocktail can still be found in New Orleans, particularly at historic bars like the Sazerac Bar and Arnaud's French 75 Bar. The key to a perfect Ramos Gin Fizz lies in achieving the right balance of citrus, creaminess, and effervescence, making it a beloved choice for cocktail enthusiasts worldwide.
