We’ve done a ton of research over the last year or so in order to hone in on our “signature cocktail” for our upcoming wedding, which may have been one of my favourite parts of the planning process. I know – it’s a tough job and a selfless act, but someone has to do it and we were kind enough to take that bullet. We’re just good people like that. And while this recipe for a gin fizz isn’t it, it came pretty darn close and I felt I needed to share. It’s light, it’s refreshing, and it very well may be my go-to summer sipper.

This is very close to one of my favorite drinks, the French 75. Deadly but delicious!
Gin Fizz – delicious, but just a slippery slope to its deadlier cousin – the FROZEN Gin Fizz. Don’t say that you weren’t warned.
