    As an avid cocktail hype girl, I love experimenting with different cocktails. One cocktail that consistently stands out to me is the Lavender Gin Fizz. This drink is a beautiful blend of floral and herbal flavours, making it the perfect choice for any occasion, whether it's a relaxing evening with friends or a special celebration. Also, she's a stunner to look at - just sayin'.

    Lavender Gin Fizz: A Tri-Flavour Affair to Remember

    The gin fizz has been a classic cocktail for many years. However, the addition of lavender to this classic drink has taken it to a whole new level, creating a unique and complex flavour profile that is sure to impress. All of this to say that lavender and gin were basically made for each other. Both pack a punch of floral and herbal goodness, making them a match made in cocktail heaven. Then we throw some fresh lemon juice into the mix and bam! It's like the ultimate love triangle, but instead of heartache, you get a delicious, delicately balanced sip.

    Gin Quality: A Cocktail's Wingman

    Listen, I know it may be tempting to reach for the cheapest bottle on the shelf. Here's the thing: the quality of gin matters in cocktail mixing. The quality of gin affects the overall taste and balance of the drink. Why? A high-quality gin will have a complex flavour profile with distinct botanical notes. This means it can enhance the taste of the cocktail and bring out the delicious flavours of the other ingredients. On the other hand, a lower quality gin can have a harsh, overpowering taste that can throw off the balance of the drink. The quality of gin can also impact the texture and mouthfeel of a cocktail. Yup, you heard right: a crappy gin can influence the drink's smoothness and drinkability. So do yourself a solid and choose a good quality gin when making this Lavender Gin Fizz recipe. Your wingman will ensure the best possible taste and overall drinking experience.

    A Soothing Sip with a Floral Twist

    When it comes to making your lavender-infused creations, you have options! You can go the store-bought route and grab a bottle of pre-made lavender simple syrup, or you can get creative and whip up your own homemade batch. For the sake of time and simplicity, I've listed a few store-bought options below.

    • Monin Lavender Syrup 
    • Prosyro Lavender Syrup
    • Bacanha Lavender Syrup

    Fizz Frenzy: The Bubbly Definition

    What makes a cocktail a "fizz" anyway? A "fizz" is a type of cocktail characterized by it's effervescence and carbonation. Basically, it's got a sparkle that'll have you feeling like you're sipping on a bubbly dream thanks to a splash of soda water, tonic or sparkling wine. The fizz isn't just for the fun bubbles: it can also help to balance the flavours and sweetness of the other ingredients.

    The Tart Touch in a Fizz

    Lemon juice is the secret weapon in a Gin Fizz cocktail, delivering a sharp and lively flavour that elevates the drink to new heights. It strikes a harmonious balance between the sweetness and richness of the other ingredients, creating a delicious and well-rounded cocktail. The lemon juice also adds a crisp and sophisticated touch of citrus that is the epitome of classic cocktail elegance.

    Tools for a Flawless Lavender Gin Fizz

    A shaker, strainer, and glass are the only tools you need to make a lavender gin fizz. The short list of special equipment applies to most drinks, thankfully, making the life of a cocktail lover a tad simpler. I've listed a ton of my favourite shakers throughout the years, but there's no need to go out and buy a new one. As long as your shaker doesn't seep liquid off the sides, you're good to go.
