The Silver Fizz is a Gin Fizz with egg white: gin, lemon, sugar, and soda lengthened under a pale foam. The white adds texture without the richness of a yolk (Golden Fizz). Served tall, it sits between a sour and a sparkling highball.

Silver Fizz in a Collins glass, pale cloudy body, dense white foam cap, no fruit garnish.

Did you know?

“Silver, Golden, and Royal Fizzes differ by egg: white only, yolk only, or whole egg—same gin-citrus-soda architecture.”

Bartender's Note

Dry-shake egg white first. Leave room for soda so the foam rises cleanly. No garnish keeps the foam visual clean.
