The Alembic • San Francisco

The original Ramos Gin Fizz served at Henry Ramos's famous late-19th-century New Orleans saloon was shaken for two minutes to thoroughly froth the egg white. Shaking egg white cocktails without ice, then shaking them again with ice emulsifies the white and adds an airy texture.
