We give both UK & US measurements for this recipe. In England, we work in the metric system of ml and a single shot is only 25ml.

In America, they use imperial measurements a single shot is 1.5oz, which when converted to UK measurement is 44ml. So you may want to adjust measurements to suit?

Ingredients for Pink Gin Fizz?

Ice

Plenty of ice is needed, use small cubes for when mixing the gin co*cktail in the shaker.

We make our own large square ice cubes for inside the co*cktail glass.

Gin Or Pink Gin

The best gin to use is down to personal preference? Or what you already have in the cupboard! In the pictured recipe, we used a supermarket branded London Dry Gin.

You can use pink gin instead if preferred.

We measure a double shot (50ml) for each gin fizz co*cktail. However, you can do single if you want it weaker?

Grenadine

Use a single shot (25ml) of grenadine, this is what gives the gin co*cktail a beautiful pink colour whilst adding a tart, sweet flavour.

Grenadine is made from pomegranates and commonly used in co*cktails.

Lemon

Use freshly squeezed lemon juice for the best co*cktails. Half a lemon squeezed should give enough for a single shot (25ml) measure.

Lemon slices also make a great co*cktail garnish, seen below.

Mix the ice, gin, grenadine and lemon juice together in a co*cktail shaker.

Pour on top of ice & lemon slices .

Soda Water or Lemonade

Add soda water at the end, to give fizziness to the pink gin fizz co*cktail. Add as much or little as desired, by taste.

Of course, if you prefer a sweet gin fizz co*cktail use lemonade instead.

How to sugar rim co*cktail glasses?

So easy and quick to give your co*cktail glass a sugar rim.

Just add grenadine or lemon juice on one plate, and caster sugar (superfine) in the other.

Dip the glass in the grenadine, lift and allow any excess to drip off. Then dip into the sugar.

We like to use grenadine to give a pink sugar rim. However, you can use lemon juice instead for a clear sugary rim.

Gin Fizz co*cktail Garnish Idea

Keep the garnish for your Gin Fizz co*cktail simple. With slices of lemon propped up with ice inside the glass and a slice on the side.

We used a co*cktail stick through a lemon swirl and added a little dried pink rosebud too.

Pink Gin Fizz is the perfect co*cktail for drinking with loved ones over Christmas or to celebrate the New Year in?
