Review:

Everyone has heard of this clean, refreshing, long drink but few have actually tried it.

Variant:

With the addition of egg white this drink becomes a Silver Fizz
With egg yolk it becomes a Golden Fizz
With a whole egg, it's a Royal Fizz
With brut sparkling wine in place of soda it's a Diamond Fizz
With orange flower water and cream it's a Ramos Gin Fizz
With a dash of green crème de menthe it's a
a Green Fizz
With equal parts sloe gin and grapefruit juice in place of gin and lemon juice it's a Purple Fizz

History:

A mid-19th century classic.
