Simple delivery of cheer at its most 'refined'? Lemon meringue-smeared, semi-diluted gin?... The aftertaste is mildly amusing, but way more interesting than any sip... I drink to explore flavors, and this drink is intentionally trying to tittilate and tease. (4 Jan 2023, 6:44a)

Ah the controversial Golden Fizz. I could not taste egg in the final drink, which is pretty good. Lemon, sugar, juniper from the gin with just a tiny richness.
