Royal Fizz is a refreshing cocktail with gin and cola, perfect for summer parties.

The story

The Royal Fizz is a variation of the classic fizz cocktail, which dates back to the 19th century. It gained popularity for its refreshing and frothy texture, thanks to the inclusion of egg white. The combination of gin and sweet and sour mix creates a balanced flavor, while the addition of cola adds a unique twist, making it a staple in some cocktail bars.

How it tastes

The Royal Fizz offers a sweet and tangy flavor profile with a creamy texture from the egg. The gin provides herbal notes, while the cola adds a caramel sweetness. It's best served as a refreshing drink during warm weather or as a fun party cocktail.

Getting it right

The key to a successful Royal Fizz is the proper shaking technique. A vigorous shake is essential to emulsify the egg and create a frothy texture. Additionally, straining the mixture well ensures a smooth drink without any egg solids.

Variations

  • Ramos Gin Fizz — This variation includes cream, orange flower water, and soda water, creating a rich and aromatic drink.
  • Silver Fizz — Similar to the Royal Fizz but uses only egg white, resulting in a lighter texture.

Substitutions

  • Sweet and Sour Mix — You can substitute with fresh lemon or lime juice mixed with simple syrup.
  • Coca-Cola — Any cola or even ginger ale can be used for a different flavor profile.

Questions

Can I use pasteurized egg instead of a raw egg?
Yes, using pasteurized egg is a safer option and will still provide the desired frothy texture.
Is it possible to make a non-alcoholic version?
Yes, you can replace gin with tonic water or a non-alcoholic gin alternative and keep the other ingredients the same.
What if I don't have a shaker?
If you don't have a shaker, you can use a mason jar or any container with a tight-fitting lid to shake the ingredients.
