Ingredients
1 1/2 oz gin
2 drop orange flower water
2 egg whites
5 teaspoon confectioners sugar
1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
2 oz half and half
1 drop vanilla extract
1/2 cup ice coarsely cracked
Cooking Directions:
Put all ingredients into a blender. Cover and blend on high for 90 seconds. The mixture should be quite thick and airy, so blend more if the texture is too thin. Pour into a tall thin glass, or a double-sized old fashioned glass.
Invented in the 1880s by Henry C. Ramos, in his bar at Meyer's Restaurant, this is one of New Orleans' most famous drinks. The secret of its flavor and texture is orange flower water and egg whites. When Huey P. Long was governor of Louisiana he brought with him to New York's Roosevelt Hotel the bartender from the New Orleans Roosevelt just so he could have New Orleans gin fizzes whenever he was in New York. Yeah, sure, every man a king ...
