Real Deal Tom Collins
Sweet, sour, and slightly fizzy, the Toms Collins is an enduring favorite. Apparently, our taste for lemonade goes way back. The Tom Collins was mentioned in the book How to Mix Drinks by Bartender “Professor” Jerry Thomas in 1862, and was likely a popular drink prior to that.
