Raspberry Gin Fizz
This Raspberry Gin Fizz is the perfect spring or summer cocktail. It's not only beautiful, it's super tasty.
Ingredients
- 1/2 cup raspberries
- 2 tbsp sugar
- 1/2 cup of water
- 4 oz gin
- 2 oz lemon juice
- 2 oz soda water or tonic water
- Ice cubes
- Raspberries for garnish
- Fresh mint for garnish
Instructions
- Mix the raspberries, sugar and water in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until all the sugar is dissolved and the syrup is bubbly. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
- Put the syrup through a sieve to remove the solids. Chill to room temperature. You can keep the syrup in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To make two cocktails, pour the raspberry syrup into a cocktail shaker. Add the gin and lemon juice. Shake to combine.
- Fill two tumblers with ice. Pour half the contents of the shaker into each glass. Top with tonic/soda water, a few raspberries and a sprig of mint for garnish. Serve.
Notes
- This cocktail can be made with many different types of berries and fruits, like blackberries, blueberries, peaches, pears, and cranberries.
- You can double or triple the recipe for the raspberry syrup if you want to make more than 2 cocktails.
