About
While the exact origins of the Gin Fizz are debated, it is believed to have been popularized in the 1870s in New York and New Orleans. Some attribute the original recipe to an anonymous bartender in the American city, while others believe it was formulated by a bartender at a luxury hotel in New Orleans, where cocktails were refined to suit a discerning clientele.
