Royal Gin Fizz is a gin fizz enriched with a whole egg. The egg gives body and foam, while carbonated water must be added after shaking.
Shake gin, lemon juice, powdered sugar, and whole egg without carbonated water until emulsified. Add ice and shake again until cold. Strain into a highball glass over ice, top with carbonated water, stir gently, and serve without garnish.
Serve in a highball glass with a pale foam and clear bubbles. Keep it ungarnished.
Pair it with oysters, fried fish, brunch eggs, lemon chicken, or salty snacks.
The Royal Gin Fizz is part of the fizz family; the word royal commonly signals the use of a whole egg rather than only egg white.
Best for classic cocktail service, brunch, and guests who enjoy texture-rich gin drinks.
Gin provides botanicals, lemon gives acidity, sugar balances the sourness, egg adds body and foam, and carbonated water lengthens the drink.
Classic, foamy, bright, and textural.
Use simple syrup instead of powdered sugar for easier integration.
