Whichever method you opt for, once you have your gin you’ll be able to enjoy dozens of delicious cocktails, of which this classic recipe is surely the prettiest. Here’s how to make a classic Sloe Gin Fizz.
Sloe Gin Fizz
Sloe Gin Fizz
30ml sloe gin
10ml simple syrup
15ml freshly squeezed lemon juice
Prosecco or champagne, to top up
One egg white (optional)
Add your sloe gin, simple syrup, lemon juice and egg white if using (this will create a beautiful white foam on the top of your cocktail) to a cocktail shaker filled with ice and shake vigorously for 30 seconds.
Strain into a long glass such as a champagne flute or highball glass, then top up with champagne. (You could also substitute the champagne for soda water, for a less punchy version!)
