Ingredients
- 2 fl oz gin
- 1 fl oz lemon juice
- ¾ fl oz grenadine homemade or real grenadine if at all possible
- ½ fl oz egg white (½ oz is approx ½ an egg white)
- 1 fl oz soda water approx
Instructions
- Place the gin, lemon juice, grenadine and egg white in a cocktail shaker and shake well without ice so that all of the ingredients are well combined.
- Add ice (at least 4 - 6 good sized pieces) and shake again until the drink is well chilled. Strain into a glass and top up with soda water, around 1 - 2 oz (30-60ml).

Notes
- If you prefer, you can skip the soda water addition for a gin fizz sour. If so, you may want to add a couple drops of bitters as garnish on top - angostura or orange bitters are best fit here.
- The quality of the gin and grenadine that you use here will make a difference - I highly recommend homemade grenadine if at all possible (it's easy to make!)
- You can use a range of glasses to serve this - coupe or rocks would work, as well as the sherry-style glass I used here. Some will limit how much soda you can add but that also depends on taste, too.
