1 1/2 oz Heavy Cream

Two Fridays ago, I was flipping through Food & Wine: Cocktails 2012 when I was tempted by Rhiannon Enlil's Ramos Gin Fizz variation called the Ginger Baker Fizz. The drink is a tribute to the legendary Cream drummer who later went on to help popularize African-influenced world music. The Fizz began with orange oils from the twist along with ginger notes from the liqueur and beer. The creamy lemon sip gave way to a gin, chocolate, and ginger swallow. Overall, I was quite surprised at how the chocolate notes sang out more than the ginger in the mix.
