APPLE GIN FIZZ

Steps:

• For the honey simple syrup: Combine the honey with 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Turn down to a simmer and cook until the honey completely melts, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and chill completely before using. Store in an airtight container in your refrigerator for up to 10 days.
• For the cocktail: Muddle the chopped apple in a cocktail shaker. Add the gin, 1 teaspoon simple syrup, lemon juice and egg white. Shake vigorously until frothy, 1 to 2 minutes. Add ice to the cocktail shaker and shake again until chilled. Strain into martini glasses, then top each with a splash of club soda and garnish with the apple slices. Enjoy!

CLASSIC GIN FIZZ COCKTAIL

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Pour the gin, lemon or lime juice, simple syrup, and egg white (if using) into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.
• Shake vigorously , about 15 seconds if using the egg white, to ensure it is mixed thoroughly with the other ingredients. For an extra-frothy drink, discard the ice and dry shake for a few more seconds.
• Strain into a chilled highball glass over fresh ice cubes.
• Top with soda and garnish with a lemon or lime peel. Serve and enjoy.

GIN-BERRY FIZZ

Steps:

• Muddle strawberries and sugar in a mixing glass until crushed. Add gin and stir to dissolve sugar. Strain into 2 ice-filled Collins or rocks glasses. Top with seltzer.

WATERMELON GIN FIZZ

Steps:

• Puree the watermelon. Strain (I do not strain, I simply use the puree); divide the juice among 4 TALL ice-filled glasses.
• Top each glass with 1 1/2 ounces gin, 2 tablespoons lime juice and 1/3 cup ginger ale (I use a little more soda).
• Garnish with the lime wedges.
• NOTE: I mix mine up to take to the pool by combining the puree, gin and lime juice in a container and then just take cans of soda. I find that this amount makes 5 LARGE drinks.
