About the Sloe Gin Fizz

Sloes are traditionally picked after the first frost, which splits their skins. Putting them in the freezer does the same job.

Missing something?

  • No Sloe Gin? Use Crème de Mûre (Blackberry instead of sloe; sweeter)
  • No Sloe Gin? Use Crème de Cassis (Blackcurrant instead of sloe; sweeter)
  • No Lemon Juice? Use Lemon (Squeeze fresh: 1 lemon gives about 30 ml)
  • No Lemon Juice? Use Lime Juice (Sharper, different aroma)
  • No Simple Syrup? Use Rich Simple Syrup (More concentrated, so use less)
  • No Simple Syrup? Use Sugar (1 tsp sugar is about 7.5 ml syrup; stir until dissolved)
