The 24 Carat Ramos, created by Justin Draper (Edmonton, AB), is pure golden indulgence with a sparkling finish. Inspired by the classic Ramos Gin Fizz structure, this cocktail leans into rich, creamy texture while swapping tradition for something far more decadent.
Grand Marnier brings a bold orange-cognac depth, layered with bright lemon juice to keep the profile lively and lifted. Saffron syrup adds an aromatic, honeyed warmth that feels luxurious without turning cloying, while heavy cream and egg white create that signature silky, cloud-like foam.
Finished with a generous pour of cava, the result is plush, citrusy, and celebratory, like dessert and champagne decided to collaborate.

The inspiration behind this cocktail as explained by creator Justin Draper, “sparkling wines are a classic sign of celebration and opulence. This cocktail is inspired by the luxury vibes of sipping sparkling wine, and pairs Cava with premium inspired ingredients for a twist on the classic Ramos. Saffron and orange liqueur pair well with citrus and floral notes of Villa Conchi to bring a sip worthy of your celebration!”
