    The History of the Ramos Gin Fizz | Bartender at Large ep 499

    Join us for a deep dive into the frothy, fragrant world of one of cocktail culture's most legendary creations as author John Shelton Reed joins the show to discuss his book, The Ramos Gin Fizz. John traces the fascinating history of this iconic New Orleans libation, from its invention at the Imperial Cabinet Saloon in 1888 to its reign as a Crescent City institution requiring the synchronized effort of "a dozen bar hands" shaking in rotation. He unpacks the lore behind its eccentric creator Henry C. Ramos, the exacting technique that demands a full twelve minutes of shaking, and how the drink became a political touchstone during the Huey Long era. The conversation explores why this notoriously labor-intensive cocktail has captured the imagination of bartenders and drinkers for well over a century. John also reflects on the role of specialty drinks in defining a city's identity and how the Ramos Gin Fizz endures as a symbol of New Orleans' unique spirit.
