Thirsty Thursday Guest Post | The Ramos Gin Fizz

Hello Everyone!  I'm Laura, the stay-at-home mama, breastfeeder, cloth diaperer, & tickler monster, that blogs over at tiny toes, little nose.  Having bartended at my family's bar for a few summers during college, I love any opportunity to make a good cocktail!  Therefore, I am incredibly excited to be sharing one of my favorite recipes today!  A big thanks to Colleen for having me and for creating this fun series!

When most people think of morning cocktails, bloody mary's & mimosas are the only drinks to come to mind.  The Ramos Gin Fizz is the most neglected brunch beverage and deserves discovery and attention!  Not only is it a wonderful hangover cure, but it tastes just like angle food cake batter!  You will be sure to impress any brunch guests with this easy recipe:

The Ramos Gin Fizz

serves 4-6

Ingredients:

1 cup Gin

1 cup club soda

1 cup milk

1/2 can of frozen lemonade

1 egg

ice

*If you like things a little bit sweeter, 

I would recommend adding a packet or two of sweetener.

Directions:

1.  Place all ingredients into a blender.  

I add the ice last, filling until about 2 inches from the top.

2.  Blend well.  

You do not want any ice chunks, it will throw off the consistency.

3.  Serve in any type of glass, although I prefer wine glasses for a brunch.

4.  Enjoy!
