Tom Collins是IBA官方认证的新时代经典鸡尾酒，以伦敦干金酒、新鲜柠檬汁和糖浆摇匀后滤入加冰的可林杯，以苏打水补顶，橙片和樱桃装饰。这款清爽的长饮配方诞生于19世纪，以其发明者的名字命名，至今仍是夏日调酒的黄金标准，柠檬的明亮酸爽与金酒的杜松子风味和谐共存。
History & Origins
The Tom Collins appeared in Jerry Thomas's 1876 bartending guide 'The Bartenders Guide', though it is often linked to a historical hoax called the 'Tom Collins Hoax' that swept American cities in 1874, where pranksters told victims that a 'Tom Collins' was talking about them at a nearby bar. The drink appears to have predated the hoax, likely deriving from the John Collins (a whiskey-based variant) and being renamed after the Old Tom gin style commonly used. The IBA lists it among its Contemporary Classics.
Tasting Notes
Aroma: Fresh lemon zest and gin juniper with a subtle sweetness and clean soda effervescence. Palate: Tart and citrusy from the lemon juice, balanced by the sugar's sweetness and gin's botanical complexity; club soda extends the drink and adds a refreshing effervescence that lifts the flavors. Finish: Clean, dry, and refreshing with a lingering lemon citrus note.
Pro Tip
Use Old Tom gin for a historically accurate, slightly sweeter version, or London Dry for a more classic, juniper-forward Collins.
