> And I do enjoy a flip. I don't make them simply because I don't want to deal with leftover egg yolks

Flips are explicitly whole egg cocktails. If you're not using the yolk, you're not making a flip.

If you try to use aquafaba to replace the egg in a flip recipe, you'll end up with a different drink because you won't have the flavour of the yolk.

For reference:

Flip – An entire egg

Nog – An entire egg plus dairy

Sour – Egg white only

Fizz – Egg plus carbonation

Optionally, but less common: Silver Fizz (egg white), Golden Fizz (egg yolk), Royal Fizz (whole egg) + carbonation.

Ah, thank you very much. Yes, I meant a fizz rather than a flip. Thanks for clarifying.
