Cocktail Description

A timeless classic reimagined with floral elegance, the Blooming Gin Fizz delivers sophisticated refreshment in just minutes.

This cocktail beautifully balances the botanical punch of Beefeater London Dry Gin with the subtle honeyed sweetness of St-Germain Elderflower Liqueur, while Angostura Orange Bitters provide a citrusy depth that ties everything together. Each sip offers bright juniper notes followed by delicate elderflower and finishing with a gentle orange spice. Perfect for spring brunches or summer evening gatherings, this drink shines when you're looking for something more refined than a G&T but don't want to spend all day mixing drinks. Assembly couldn't be simpler—just pour, stir, and garnish with a twist of grapefruit zest that releases aromatic oils across the surface. The Blooming Gin Fizz pairs wonderfully with light appetizers like smoked salmon canapés, goat cheese tarts, or even a cheese board featuring creamy brie and dried fruits.
