Floradora

What is Floradora?

The Floradora cocktail is a bright and bubbly classic that dates back to the early 1900s, named after a popular Edwardian-era Broadway show. Light, floral, and refreshing, this rosy-hued drink combines gin, raspberry syrup (or crème de framboise), lime juice, and ginger ale for a perfectly balanced sip that’s both sweet and tart with a zesty sparkle. The Floradora is a forgotten gem of vintage cocktail culture, ideal for spring and summer sipping, garden parties, or anyone craving a vibrant and effervescent gin refresher.
