description Royal Fizz Overview
Royal Fizz is a variation on the Gin Fizz that incorporates a whole egg, using both the white and yolk rather than omitting egg or adding only one part. A typical preparation combines gin, lemon juice, sugar, the egg, and soda water, with shaking used to emulsify the egg and create a fuller, frothy texture. It is suited to drinkers who want a richer and more substantial version of a citrus-and-soda gin cocktail.
