Ramos Midori Fizz

1 oz Melon liqueur, Midori
1 oz Gin, Martin Miller's Westbourne Strength
1 oz Lime juice
1⁄2 oz Simple syrup
1⁄2 oz Cream
1⁄2 oz Egg white
2 oz Soda water
Instructions

Dry shake all ingredients but the cream until foamy. Add cream and ice and shake. Strain into a fizz glass (no ice) and top with the freshest soda water you have. Allow to settle, and then slowly add more soda to create a cloud of foam above the rim of the glass. No straws, no garnish. Bask and enjoy.

Notes

Midori is intensely flavored enough that the drink can survive serving in a larger glass (like a Collins) with more soda.

  • Perhaps the best way to use your Midori. I love this drink and I keep buying bottles of Midorit to make it. I've done a version where where I make the foam separately with a NO2 whipper and would definitely recommend.
  • Creamsicle × watermelon Jolly Rancher. If you're looking to finish that bottle of Midori, you could do a lot worse. — ★★★★

DrunkLab commented on 9/03/2016:

This is a minor variation on a version by Chaim Dauermann, the main differences (besides slightly tweaked specs) being lemon juice rather than lime and a housemade lime cordial instead of simple syrup, along with an expressed and discarded orange peel.

  • want to try this...
  • Sipsmith sloe gin but subbed old tom for genever. Alas. Deliciously tart and funky. I love this one.
  • Pleasantly tart. My cheap sloe gin and tom gin substitution held this back; I bet it's four stars easy with good sloe gin and real genever. — ★★★★

  • 7/20 This kinda grows on you...by the 4th sip or so I was liking it enough to rate it a 4. Go w/ orange garnish, not lemon. Have subbed Lillet Rouge for Dubonnet.
  • Try without the Fernet.
  • Use Dubonnet if you've got it, but works well with Cocchi Vermouth di Torino. Taste comes in waves; first the rye, then (mild) Fernet, finishing with the lemon.

MOJO1229 commented on 9/16/2016:

<br />Despite the forward-Juniper gin (I used Tanqueray's Bloomsbury Gin), and despite that I'm writing this review in mid-September, I found the Polka Dot Negroni to be a light, slightly sweet drink, one that I would be sipping on during a sunny, warm summer day--but under a big umbrella because of my fair complexion. If you're thinking, "This bloke's trying to tell me he likes the bloody drink!" you're absolutely wrong. I don't like this drink--I love the blinkin' thing!

The Polka Dot Negroni is a great summer drink, even during these last few days of summer. I think most casual drinkers will enjoy this concoction. Hell, I'll probably be drinking this wonderful drink on the first day of winter. The gin, the bianco Vermouth, and Salers go together like a hand in a glove. The lemon twist is a good garnish; I even dropped the peel into the drink for added color. However I didn't care for the Luxardo Maraschino cherry as a garnish; I spooned mine out as soon as I tasted the residual juice surrounding the cherry--the juice's taste just didn't fit in with the other tastes inherent in the drink.

Take the time to try the Polka Dot Negroni--you'll like it! Dollars to donuts! Enjoy the drink, but drink responsibly.

lesliec commented on 10/22/2018:

Salers isn't available in my part of the world, but I can report this works well with Suze. I'm with Mojo; this is light, summery and very drinkable.

HallA commented on 9/17/2024:

As everyone says, it's a classic summer gentian / gin delight. Just perfectly sweet and the junipero stands up nicely. Love it.
