Ramos Gin Fizz

I think the issue here is that different brands of orange flower water vary greatly in intensity. The only kind I can obtain here is a Lebanese product, and using only 3-4 drops of it, the contribution is undetectable. Using anything less than 15-20 drops, the orange contribution is AWOL.

When I make make a ramos fizz I put a squirt of the orange flower water in an empty dry glass (I prefer a tulip shaped wine glass) and then shake out the excess leaving just enough to coat the inside of the glass. The rest of recipe is good as written.

I make this drink often and only use a few drops of the orange flower water. Previous poster is correct! It would be awful with that much.

This drink was terrible. 1/2 ounce of orange blossom water must be a typo, it is overwhelming. Even cutting that back doesn't help, the gin is completely lost. Another restaurant has lied to Epicurious; do they ever test the "adaptations" they get?
