Pro Tips

📚 Named for F. Scott

Created by Dale DeGroff in the early 2000s at the Rainbow Room, named after F. Scott Fitzgerald – the Jazz Age author who loved his gin.

The Fitzgerald is essentially a Gin Sour plus bitters. Those two dashes of Angostura add depth and complexity that transforms a simple sour into something special.
