About
The Vodka Fizz is a silky, frothy take on the classic Gin Fizz that substitutes vodka for a cleaner, more neutral canvas. Like its gin-based cousin, the Vodka Fizz gets its characteristic cloud-like foam from egg white — dry-shaken before ice is added to build a deep, velvety froth — then lengthened with club soda for a tall, effervescent finish. The result is a drink with the most seductive texture in cocktail-making: pillowy foam giving way to a citrusy, slightly sweet body that fizzes gently on the palate. It is an older style of cocktail that has never really gone out of fashion among those who know it.
Instructions
- Combine vodka, lemon juice, simple syrup, and egg white in a cocktail shaker without ice.
- Dry shake vigorously for 20–30 seconds to emulsify the egg white into foam.
- Add ice to the shaker and shake again hard for 15 seconds.
- Strain into a chilled Collins glass without ice.
- Top with chilled club soda, pouring slowly down the side of the glass to preserve the foam.
- Do not stir — let the foam rise naturally to the top.
