I'll give it a try...more of an Old Fashioned guy though. Bourbon, sugar, muddled cherry, bitters, splash of Cointreau. No soda water.

Bruises? I don't have a refined enough palate to know the difference.

I don't want to sound like an a$$, but gin should never be shaken. It bruises. Stirring is best.

Drinkers? Here? Perish the thought! I don't go for the hard stuff, gave that up in my 20's. Especially after my wedding, don't really recall the reception. Craft brews have my attention now, we in central PA have quite a few and they are spreading nation wide. Drink local...just saying...

We're all aspiring to Huskee's example. Personally I think it'll be difficult, but I shall push through with much effort and determination!

Tom Collins
Need:- Rocks glass
- 3 oz Gin
- Either:
- 4 oz Tom Collins mix
- or
- 3 oz Lemon Juice & 3 tsp superfine sugar
- 4 oz Club soda (NOT tonic water)
Blend or shake the gin, TC mix (or lemon juice + sugar) with cracked or cubed ice. Top with club soda (not tonic water). IMO Beefeater gin makes the best TCs. Sweet & sour mix doesn't seem to work as well as the TC mix if you can find it.
Optional garnishes: 1 maraschino cherry and orange slice.
There are MANY variations on a good Tom Collins, adjust these ratios to your taste.
Sip. Then make another.Last edited by Huskee; July 10, 2014, 03:56 PM.
