Welcome to Brunch Bonanza. The segment where we talk about brunch cocktails!
Now here’s a fizz I can really get behind, in front of, underneath…AHEM. In the Brunch tradition of having a Fizz with a Whole Egg, here’s a floral, citrusy, honey filled wonderland. The *French word for yellow is “jaune” and so the Jaune Jaune Fizz has two yellow ingredients in it: Chartreuse Jaune and Lemon Juice. To this add Gin, a Whole Egg, Honey Syrup and well, I’m over the La Lune! Let’s have at least two of these at Brunch, mmmk?
Jaune Jaune Fizz
- 1 oz London Dry Gin (Mayfair used here)
- 3/4 oz Chartreuse Jaune
- 3/4 oz Lemon Juice
- 1/2 oz Honey Syrup
- 2 dashes of Orange Bitters
- Whole Egg
- Soda
- Lemon Peel
In tin combine Gin, Chartreuse, Lemon Juice, Honey Syrup, Bitters and Whole Egg. Dry Shake until your arms are about to fall off. Add ice and shake again for at least 20 seconds. Add around 1 oz Soda to Collins glass, then double strain contents of tin into glass. Add ice to glass and top with soda. Express Lemon Peel and garnish. Cheers.
Lusciousness in a glass. Can’t stop the FIZZ.
WOOOOOO.
*If you’ve noticed, I absolutely love French liqueur and aperitif flavours. Love them, love them, love them forever.
