Oxford University Press, publisher of the Oxford English Dictionary, has announced the 2023 word of the year – “rizz.” Do you have it? Charm, style, attractiveness; the ability to attract a romantic or sexual partner? Thanks Gen Z for popularizing the use of this slang term of the aforementioned description, said to be short for charisma. We credit you with the inspiration for a cocktail with more “rizz” than the basic Gin Fizz. Our Gin Fizz with Rizz embodies the trendy, suave, and seductive word. The charm of a feel-good cocktail, the style of a classic, and all the appeal of a fine Champagne.
