Instructions:

Directions:

Step 1: Shake Well

In a cocktail shaker filled with cracked ice, combine the Sloe Gin, sugar, and lemon juice. Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously until the ingredients are thoroughly mixed and chilled.

Step 2: Strain and Serve

Using a cocktail strainer, pour the mixture into a highball or Collins glass filled with two ice cubes. This helps to keep your drink cold without diluting its flavor.

Step 3: Add Soda Water

Fill the glass with chilled club soda, allowing the effervescence to mingle with the rich flavors of the Sloe Gin mixture. The soda water adds a refreshing fizz to your cocktail.

Step 4: Stir Gently

Using a long-handled spoon, gently stir the contents of the glass to ensure that the flavors are evenly distributed. Avoid stirring too vigorously, as you don’t want to deflate the carbonation from the soda water.

Step 5: Garnish and Enjoy!

For a finishing touch, garnish your Sloe Gin Fizz with a twist of lemon peel or a few fresh berries. Sip and savor the delightful combination of sweet, fruity flavors with a hint of tartness from the lemon juice. Cheers to a deliciously easy cocktail that’s perfect for any occasion! 🎉🍹
