In truth this video was made a while ago. We decided to do it because the first Ramos Video I made was old and we thought it needed a redo, and because we did a collaboration with the wonderful Cara Devine on her Ramos episode and we thought it would be fun to have the episodes cross over. Today I show you yet another technique for the perfect Ramos Gin Fizz. Have I succeeded? Watch to find out!

Originally called The New Orleans Fizz, this cocktail became so popular after its creation in 1888 that it took on the name of its creator – Henry C. Ramos of NOLA’s Imperial Cabinet Bar. Ramos eventually opened another bar called The Stag where the reputation for the drink grew so much that it was reported that something like 20 bartenders had to be employed to work on the drink simultaneously to keep up with demand and still they fell short.
While alive Ramos kept the recipe for this drink close to his chest and history is split on whether or not his made it public knowledge before his death, there is a chance that the Ramos as we know it isn't the original recipe. Charles H. Baker, author of the Gentleman's Companion is of the opinion that he did and this recipe is the original. Either way it's what we got, and what we got is damned good. So Enjoy!
