History

The Ramos Gin Fizz is pure New Orleans magic, created in the late 1800s to delight locals and travelers alike. Its signature frothy texture meant bartenders would shake it for minutes, all to ensure the perfect sip. The drink became famous for its theatrical preparation and creamy, refreshing feel. Today, crafting a Ramos Gin Fizz is a nod to the artistry and showmanship of classic mixology.
