A family, that of the Collins, made up of drinks made directly in the glass with distillate, lime or lemon juice, sugar syrup and soda. What differentiates them is the type of gin used in the preparation: this is what distinguishes, for example, the iconic John Collins and Tom Collins. The recipe we propose today is based on Tabar Gin , the flagship of the Casoni distillery : a gin with a strong sip obtained from the infusion of 9 local botanicals, among which juniper stands out.
And here is the very fresh Tabar Collins !
Ingredients:
60 ml of Classic Tabar Gin
30 ml of fresh lemon juice
15 ml of sugar syrup
a splash of soda/carbonated water
ice cubes
Garnish: lemon slice
Glass : highball
Preparation:
