Most of what's notable about the Ramos Gin Fizz comes before you take a sip — namely, its striking appearance, which arrives as the product of a painstaking, 10-minute preparation time. But what if there was a way to eliminate the muscle-straining extended shake and, as a consequence, put the Ramos on a permanent cocktail menu? At The Gem, in Bolton Landing, N.Y., Richie Boccato and team have done just that. Better yet, they've managed to do so without fancy equipment or molecular techniques. Listen on (or read below) to discover Boccato's reinvented Ramos Gin Fizz recipe — and don't forget to like, review and subscribe! Richie Boccato's Ramos Gin Fizz Recipe Ingredients - ⅜ ounce fresh lemon juice - ⅜ ounce fresh lime juice - ⅞ ounce demerara syrup (2:1) - 1 ounce heavy cream - 1 ½ ounces Old Tom Gin, such as Barr Hill, Hayman's, or Greenhook - 4 or 5 drops orange flower water - 1 ½ teaspoons pasteurized egg white powder - Pinch (tip of teaspoon) charcoal salt Directions 1. Combine all ingredients in a blender with a heaped scoop (8-10 ounces) crushed ice. 2. Blend on a high setting until chilled and all ingredients fully incorporated. 3. Pour intoe a chilled Collins glass. 4. Garnish with an orange “rose,” made with a mint sprig and a cherry on a bamboo skewer. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
520. Part 2 of our conversation with Joshua Trosclair, a progressive activist. "HousingLOUISIANA is a statewide initiative aimed at meeting Louisiana's housing needs and create a statewide network of regional housing alliances to ensure better collaboration across the state. Under the #PutHousingFirst banner, Louisiana has built out its Housing Triad, a multi-pronged strategy transforming the affordable housing marketplace across the state. This alignment supports a housing-centered foundation for intersectional community-rooted initiatives designed to respond to climate change, criminal justice reform, racial inequity, the COVID-19 pandemic, and the hurricanes that have devastated South Louisiana over the last few years." This week in Louisiana history. April 30, 1803. Louisiana Treaty Purchase Treaty signed. This week in New Orleans history. On May 6, 1883, the Daily Picayune reported that "a New Orleans concern which H. C. Ramos is president and other leading buisness are interested" bought two stores on Tchoupitoulas Street with plans to erect a plant for the manufacture of their product, Red Rock Ginger Ale. Henry C. Ramos would gain greater fame in 1888 when he concocted the first Ramos Gin Fizz — a mixture of gin, lemon juice, lime juice, egg white, sugar, cream, orange flower water, and soda water — at his Imperial Cabinet Saloon on Gravier Street. Before Prohibition, Ramos had over 20 bartenders working at the Imperial at once making nothing but the Ramos Gin Fizz - and still struggling to keep up with demand. During the carnival of 1915, 32 staff were on at once, just to shake the drink. This week in Louisiana.

A drink invented by a preacher who didn't drink, it must be good. This drink is the holy grail of brunch drinks and it's hard to stop at just one, but don't let Henry catch you drinking too many. Ramos gin fizz In your shaker, big side add Egg white 2oz gin ½ oz lime ½ oz lemon ¾ oz rich Simple syrup (or 1 oz of regular simple) 6 drops Orange flower water Hit it with a few drops (2) of vanilla extract - if you want ¾ oz heavy cream - last because it will curdle if it sits too long SHAKE the ever loving hell out of it, with ice for 30 seconds - 1 min, the longer the better. Collins glass out of the fridge, add a little soda water to the bottom of the glass (about 1 fingers width) Pour contents of shaker, from a height that's a little higher than you normall would pour from (because you want the drink to splash and emulsify a little more in the bottom of your glass) Let your drink rest for 1 - 2 minutes while you clean up your mess Then add a little more soda water to the empty shaker, and shake it just a few seconds - top off your glass Garnish with an environmentally responsible straw in the middle of the drink - if you made the drink well the straw will stand straight up. Violet fizz Lavender syrup: Equal parts water + sugar about 1 cup for each and 3-4 lavender flowers Big shaker add: 1 egg white 2oz gin ½ oz creme de violette ½ oz lime ½ oz lemon ¾ oz Lavender Simple syrup 6 drops Orange flower water Hit it with a few drops (2) of vanilla extract, per brads recipe ¾ oz heavy cream Reverse the dry shake here, I think it makes for an easier assembly. Add ice and shake the hell out of it, at least 1 minute. Open that cocktail shaker and strain into the other side of the shaker so the ice does not go into the shaker. Now, take a hand frother and froth the hell out of it for at least 1 minute if not two. No straining necessary here, just pour the mixture ¾ of the way into a tall Collins glass. Top with that soda water and float the remaining cocktail to lift the drink up. Garnish with a fresh lavender flower and put a straw in that bad boy, pat yourself on the back, and enjoy Top it after it settles if you don't get it right away The Art of Drinking IG: @theartofdrinkingpodcast Jules IG: @join_jules TikTok: @join_jules Website: joinjules.com Brad IG: @cigarsnvino This is a Redd Rock Music Podcast IG: @reddrockmusic www.reddrockmusic.com Learn more about your ad choices.

Given that New Orlean is home to a multitude of cocktails, from the Sazerac to the Ramos Gin Fizz to the Hurricane, you'd think a great book about the city's drinks and drinking culture would already exist.

Keep up with Decoding Cocktails via our newsletter or on Instagram.---Beyond the cocktail recipe and technique books I've read, Robert's book A Proper Drink transformed my understanding of how cocktails arrived at where they are. Robert recalled a (potentially illegal) seminar conducted by Ted Breaux about AbsintheDrinks and bottles that were big in San Francisco: Mojito, Pisco Punch, and Pisco Sour, and Fernet Branca Drinks and bottles that were big in New Orleans: Pimm's Cup, French 75, Ramos Gin Fizz, Milk Punch, Sazerac, and The HurricaneRobert mentions drinks like Little Italy and Tom & Jerry.He reminds us that until books like The Craft of the Cocktail and The Joy of Mixology came out, forums like DrinkBoy and egullet were how people learned. He also recommends Straight Up or On the Rocks. Greg Boehm of Cocktail Kingdom launched Mud Puddle Books which began reissuing and publishing various books.

What does it mean to look at yourself through the eyes of the ‘other'? How do you maintain a sense of self in this process? How do you build social equity to match the room that you are in? Hosts Jason and Yvonne Lee examine the pathways to equity in this season two debut of Lagralane Spirits. With guests Monique Marshall (anti-bias/anti-racist educator) and DeMille Halliburton (champion of access and equity), they discuss the historical perspectives of ‘Passing' which is the ability of a person to be regarded as a member of an identity group that is different than their own. This meaningful conversation is accompanied by the Ramos Gin Fizz cocktail, chosen purposefully for this episode due its unique appearance and complexity to prepare. The journey to access, or ‘getting in the room' is different for each one of us, and usually includes self-exploration and self-acceptance. Enjoy Monique and DeMille's unique examples of how they work to provide pathways of access and equity to others whether through food banks, entertainment or education. They also share personal stories about passing and identity as they answer this episode's Cocktail Confession question, “When it comes to establishing and maintaining equity, what have you had to do to get in the room?” *This episode contains strong language.

In this eye-opening conversation with Bar Director Deke Dunne of Allegory here in Washington, DC, some of the topics we discuss include: How Deke transitioned from a life in politics to a life behind bars, starting by working security at perhaps DC's most successful pop-up EVER and then making the switch to bartending. What a surrealist Victorian novel by Lewis Carrol has to do with Ruby Bridges, a civil rights pioneer who was the first black child to desegregate a white school here in the US, and why the artwork at Allegory mixes those stories together and puts them on display. Of course, we talk cocktails and drink development, explaining how Deke and his team use flavors to tell stories. And this might sound cut-and-dry, but when we explain how rum, bourbon, oxidized sherry, banana liqueur, and a purple tuber all came to reside in a Kefir-finished milk punch, your mind will be blown. We also necessarily dig into the tricky balance that a bartender needs to walk when engaging with guests about historically charged and culturally sensitive subject matter. It's possible to do it really well, but there's also a lot of work that occurs behind the scenes to strike the right balance. Along the way, we discuss the role of hospitality in a concept bar, why a Ramos Gin Fizz is like a baseball bat donut, what's next for Deke and Allegory in 2022, and much, much more. This episode was made possible with editing and sound design by Samantha Reed, spirits and infused cocktail wisdom courtesy of Kurt Maitland, and a little bit of interview magic by yours truly.

Not only have whiskey and rum long been shipped through the state’s ports but local bartenders have created classics such as the Sazerac and Huey Long’s favorite, the Ramos Gin Fizz. Tim McNally – an expert on cocktail history and the author of a new book about the Sazerac, along with Louisiana Life Magazine Executive Editor Errol Laborde and producer Kelly Massicot, provides a fun romp through the history of booze in Louisiana.
In our first episode of Season 3 we drink a southern classic and favorite of Huey P. Long (see episode 11 & 12), the Ramos Gin Fizz. https://www.beyondreproachpod.com/the-cocktails This frothy vintage cocktail created in 1888 used to require twelve minutes of shaking to create its iconic foam top. We learn about the history of this labor-intensive but delicious cream-based concoction and how it relates to Tux’s scandal. ALSO DISCUSSED: Blanche Devereaux, Golden Palace, Howard Zinn, laughing oneself into a sweat, making Orwell fiction again, sturdy well-endowed white men, Peculiar Picture Show, eyeholes, Petty Pendergrass, and Indian “promenades.” TUX’s dives deep into the Daughters of the Confederacy, the construction of confederate monuments, and the mythology of the Lost Cause. We toast to symbols of hate and oppression and the white women who love them. STEPHANIE shines a light on the century-long fight over Mount Rushmore, America’s highly problematic national landmark that never should have been built. We raise a glass to struggle, what the aim of the struggle depends on who you ask. For source information on each scandal and to peruse our online shop: SITE

Food News: Coffee in Westeros, Cheese of Seafood Pasta, Whine Emoji’s, Unpopular Food Opinions This was a big week in Food News. First off we had Queen Danaerys Targaryen celebrating the defeat of the army of the dead with a Pumpkin Spice Latte. In a scene where every major character is celebrating their victory and drinking yards of ale, a coffee cup is seen in front of The Mother of Dragons herself. So even though you probably thought that the first Starbucks opened in Seattle, you were wrong. The first Starbucks opened in Winterfell. Source According to Chef Massimo Donato the customer is not always right. When a customer asked for “Parmesan” cheese on his Crab Ravioli in a Salmon Cream Sauce, he was refused. When he went to TripAdvisor to complain about it the chef responded and told him he should put the cheese on cow dung and that they will never allow cheese on seafood pasta. As someone who has worked extensively in Italian restaurants, the protocol is usually to advise the guest not to put cheese on it but if they want to, they are the ones paying for it. If someone wants their $120 Porterhouse Well Done, you give it to them, if they want grated cheese all over their $25 Pasta, you give it to them as well. It’s not so much that the customer is always right(because in both cases, they’re wrong) but that the customer is paying and if that’s what will make them happy, then so be it. Just know if you do order something like this, the entire restaurant staff will be making fun of your awful palate behind your back. Source In this weeks edition of “First World Problems” Wine Professionals are complaining that they simply cannot live in a world without a white wine emoji. Taking such stances as “How can I Instagram my Domaine LeFlaive??? How will people ever know what I am drinking without the proper emoji” to “Lady Gaga has a song Grigio Girls, do you think she texts red wine bottles when she talks about it” One wine auctioneer has even called it “The Mueller Report of the Wine Business”. Source Finally, The Serious Eats Staff published an article of their most unpopular food opinions. Tom and I discussed which ones we agreed with and which we didn’t. Check out the segment for all of our answers, and the original article here North Meets South Farms, Food, and Drink Festival North Fork Event Company is hosting a Farms, Food, and Drink Festival in Calverton, NY on June 8th and 9th. The event will take place on 80 sprawling acres of tree-lined property that was once a golf course. The event, North Meets South, brings the communities of the North and South Forks of Long Island, NY together for a weekend promoting the farm-to-table movement. The festival will be curated with provisions from local farms, food from restaurants all over the East End, and drinks from your favorite breweries, vineyards, and cider houses. North Meets South will also feature several children, teen, and adult activities; such as bounce houses and slides, petting zoo, pony rides, live entertainment and more!

Clare Langan Talks About Her Life As A Culinary Producer Clare Langan is a Culinary Producer, Food Stylist, and Chef. She studied Fashion, worked in Private Equity, and then went to Culinary School. She became a Personal Chef and taught cooking classes all over the city. She started doing food styling and helped produce the famous “Hands and Pans” style cooking videos that used to be all over Facebook. A friend of Clare’s was a teacher at Sur La Table and got into a bike accident. He needed someone to take over his job while he was hurt and Clare took over for him. Over the course of 4 years, she went from Teacher to Head Chef of the NYC Sur La Table. She began looking into opening her own Cooking School but was contacted by Chef Joel Gamoran about his TV show Scraps getting greenlit. Scraps is a food and travel about Food Waste. Joel Gamoran and crew go all over the country teaming up with local chefs to cook dinner parties made out of repurposed foods. They make dishes like pasta sauce out of carrot tops. Unfortunately, we just met Clare and she is already leaving us. Clare is moving from NYC to San Francisco because she ate a strawberry. While at a farmers market someone gave her a single strawberry and it’s the best one she has ever eaten. It was red all the way through and jam-packed full of flavor. She is also moving to a home with an Avocado Tree, Lemon Tree, and Artichoke Tree. We wish Clare a safe move to the West Coast and that she has an incredible future with whatever she decides to do.

I picked a drink that got slammed by the New York Times two days later, and Tom picked the drink that I literally picked last week Clare’s Drink: Mezcal Paloma The Paloma is classically made with Tequila and Grapefruit Soda like Squirt or Jarritos, a Mezcal Paloma switches out the Tequila for Mezcal, but I want to show you how to do a fancy cocktail bar one and not just a mixed drink 1/4 ounce simple syrup1/4 ounce lime juice2 ounces grapefruit juice2 ounces mezcal (or tequila)2 ounces soda water1 grapefruit wedge, for garnish 1.Rim the glass with salt 2. In your shaker add all ingredients besides soda water 3. Shake, strain, pour over ice 4. Top with soda water, add grapefruit garnish Mike’s Drink: Aperol Spritz Tuesday night after work I was thirsty, and nothing sounded as good and thirst quenching as an Aperol Spritz. A Coworker and I find ourselves at The Smith and had a few, and they were everything I could have asked for. A good spritz is sweet and bitter but most importantly, thirst quenching. This low ABV cocktail is great to have on a hot day, a cold day, or an average weather day. The NY Times just published an article about how it is a bad drink because it is all marketing and usually made with cheap and sweet sparkling wine. If it is overly sweet it will not be good, but any place that is carrying Aperol and doesn’t have the Spritz on its cocktail menu will usually have a decent prosecco that they pour by the glass 2 oz Prosecco 1.25 oz Aperol Splash of Soda Water 1. Fill your glass with ice 2. Add all ingredients 3.Garnish with Orange Slice Tom’s Drink: The Ramos Gin Fizz Tom just straight up stole my drink from last week. After we recorded he went to his favorite bar and ordered one. It blew his mind so he amazon primed Orange Blossom Water and is hellbent on mastering them at his home. So I apologize that we have the same cocktail two weeks in a row, blame Tom 2 oz Gin .5 oz Lemon Juice .5 oz Lime Juice .5 oz Simple Syrup .5 oz heavy cream 3 dashes orange flower water 1 Egg White Top with club soda To Prepare: Put all ingredients besides the club soda into a shaking tin and shake vigorously without ice. This is called dry shaking and allows for the foam to form in the drink. Add ice and shake vigorously again. Honestly, you will be shaking for about 5 minutes. Pour into a Collins Glass with ice, add seltzer into the tins to pick up whatever is left and top your drink with it. The Ramos Gin Fizz was created by Henry Ramos in New Orleans in the 1880s. People would come from all over to drink one so he employed an entire line of men to just shake these cocktails.
Food News: Avocados and Millenials Guacamole Cheese will be available for purchase starting May 1st at all 161 locations of fresh market. This gouda-style cheese is pale green,and combines avocado, lime,chili,tomato,onion,and garlic. It can be cubed to eat alone,shredded on nachos, or melted into a queso dip. To quote a great mathematician Dr.Ian Malcolm "Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should." Simply put this just shouldn't exist. Avocados and Cheese are both delicious things that do not need to be part of each others world. This is the new "dessert hummus" a Frankenstein mashup of food that is made for clicks and insta-likes In other avocado based news, a property developer in Vancouver is promising a year of Avocado Toast with everyone $300,000 condo sold. After purchasing the condo you get a gift card to an unnamed restaurant that would cover Avocado Toast or any other breakfast for a full year. As NotAFoodie's residential millennial, I think this is a hilarious marketing attempt but it's getting people all over North America talking about it. The developers are also taking a 10% down payment as opposed to one typically in the 15-25% range, which I think is much more enticing than slicing avocados on top of toast. Lastly in Food News another old person is blaming Millennials for their failures. Jonathan Maze at Restaurant Business Online wrote this article saying that Millennials are to blame for casual restaurants chains profit drop. The fact of the matter is blaming everything on Millennials at this point is lazy. Yes wages are on the rise and unemployment is low, but $15 minimum wage is still a low salary and rents are very high. If I just spent 40 hours working for $600 before taxes, so a take home pay between $400-$500, why am I going to spend $30 of it at a crappy chain restaurant where everything is microwaved. Restaurants need to see that in addition to being cost conscious Millennials also want to know where their food is coming from,and be wowed by the flavor, not eat something that just got popped into the microwave Street Food and Guy Fieri Street Food is Netflix's newest debut in the world of Food Documentaries. In the same vein as Chef's Table. It highlights street food from around the world. Esquire magazine gave it the highest praise saying it fills a"Bourdain-Sized hole in Food TV." Tom and I are obviously both big street food guys. The photo for this blog post is of the Boat Noodle Soup I ate at a Night Market in Bangkok. I went with a friend of a friend who just ordered for me. I've said before how the soups in Thailand are out of this world, with crazy depths of flavor. This is one of the best things I've ever ate. Somehow we went from Street Food to Guy's Grocery Games. I've watched a few hours of this show(compared to like a million hours of Chopped) and I am pretty sure with my combination of IQ,Fitness, and Cooking knowledge that I would absolutely clean up on this show. I am very good with thinking on my feet, deceptively fast, and of course I can throw down in the kitchen. I went to their casting site but they only cast actual chefs unfortunately How To Make Pasta Pomodoro Italian Cuisine is defined not by crazy techniques or and a million ingredients, but by its simplicity and letting the ingredient speak for themselves. I don't think that there is a single dish that does this better than a Pomodoro Sauce. "The Whole is Greater than the Sum of its Parts" is the best way to describe it. A 5 ingredient dish that will please everybody Pomodoro for 4 16 oz of dried pasta(I like Rigatoni, Tom likes Spaghetti) 8 Plum Tomatoes 1/4 Cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1/2 Onion 4 Garlic Cloves 3 Basil Sprigs(plush more to garnish) Prepping The Tomatoes Take your 8 tomatoes and cut an X onto the bottom of them. Prepare a pot of boiling water as well as an ice bath. Drop the tomatoes into the boiling water for 30 seconds, and then place them in the ice bath. Remove and peel from the bottom, scoop out seeds with a spoon Prepping the Pasta Heavily salt your boiling water(3 tbsp), do not use any olive oil. Cook pasta al dente Making the Pomodoro Sauce Pour your olive oil into a large pan on medium heat. Add diced onions and cook for 2 minutes stirring throughout, add crushed garlic cloves and continue to stir for 1 minute. Now add tomatoes, stirring occasionally and breaking them up with your spatula. Cook for 18 minutes, add chiffonade basil to your sauce and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Optional: Add 2 tbp of butter at the end for a richer sauce Add the pasta to your sauce, use tongs to plate. Garnish with Pecorino Romano and Fresh Basil If you decide you want to make this, DM us photos @NotAFoodieShow on Instagram and Twitter Let's Drink: The Ramos Gin Fizz and Vin de Pamplemousse This week Tom and I pulled out all the stops for this segment. On the podcast I said a Fizz is a Sour with seltzer but I was wrong A Fizz is Liquor, Acid,Simple Syrup and Seltzer A Sour is Liquor,Acid,Simple Syrup, Egg White This is a Ramos Gin Fizz Mike's Drink: The Ramos Gin Fizz 2 oz Gin .5 oz Lemon Juice .5 oz Lime Juice .5 oz Simple Syrup .5 oz heavy cream 3 dashes orange flower water 1 Egg White Top with club soda To Prepare: Put all ingredients besides the club soda into a shaking tin and shake vigorously without ice.

Tom's Drink: Vin de Pamplemousse 3 Ruby Red Grapefruits 3 White Grapefruits 4 Lemons 1 Vanilla Bean 3 Cups Granulated Sugar 5 Liters of Wine($10 NZ Sauvignon Blanc preferred) 1 Liter of Vodka To Prepare: Slice all your citrus very thin with the skin on. Sterilize a large bucket and add all the ingredients. Cover with plastic wrap and put away in the dark for 40 days. Your first few days you need to go and stir it vigorously to make sure the sugar dissolves, then just leave it and let all the flavors meld. Pour it into sterilized wine bottles and cork them If you want a bottle of Vin de Pamplemousse DM us on Instagram or Twitter

The Ramos Gin Fizz. The Sazerac. The Mint Julep. Cocktails can have some great origin stories, but how can you tell sober fact from tipsy fiction? This week, we're going cold turkey to get the details behind that noble institution of pre-dinner drinking: the cocktail party. Legend (or Wikipedia) says the first cocktail party was held by Mrs. Julius S. Walsh Jr. in 1917 St. Louis. As we'll learn, the real story is *way* more complicated, stretching from Revolutionary America to the swinging 1970s. While Mrs. Walsh may not have invented the cocktail party, her life was full up with martinis, mayhem, and, yes, even murder.

In 1888, Henry Ramos invented a New Orleans classic cocktail that was so labor intensive he employed a relay of bartenders to shake it. What a sight that must have been. The subtle citrus flavors and the creamy texture make this one a really treat. Note that this is served up in a Collins glass, so don't add ice to the serving glass. 2 ounces London dry gin 1/2 ounce fresh lemon juice* 1/2 ounce fresh lime juice* 1/2 ounce simple syrup 1 ounce heavy cream 1 egg white** 3 drops of orange flower water 1 drop of vanilla extract club soda Everything except the club soda goes into the shaker without ice. Dry shake for about a minute. Add ice and shake again for at least two minutes (feel free to try to shake it for 12 minutes). Carefully pour into a tall glass without ice. Pour enough club soda into the glass to fill it up. Drop in a straw and serve. *In the podcase, I said 1 ounce. It should be 1/2 ounce. **If you are squeamish about using raw egg whites, you can substitute pasteurized or powered. But I wouldn't recommend it.
