Refreshing Citrus

Victory Collins是一款清爽的长饮鸡尾酒,以伏特加、新鲜柠檬汁、无糖葡萄汁和糖粉调制,以橙片装饰,摇匀后滤入加冰的可林杯中。葡萄汁与柠檬汁的组合,形成微涩酸味,使其有别于以柑橘为主导的Tom Collins。这是一款适合喜欢葡萄深度与柑橘共舞的饮酒者的果味可林变奏。

History & Origins

The Victory Collins is a classic American cocktail of disputed origin, appearing in mid-20th century bartending guides as a Collins variant built on vodka and grape juice rather than gin and lemon. The name may reference post-World War II celebration culture, though no direct documentation connects it to the Victory in Europe or Japan celebrations. It reflects the era's enthusiasm for adapting classic formats to new base spirits and juice combinations.

Tasting Notes

Aroma: Tart lemon and fresh grape juice with a clean vodka background and a hint of orange from the garnish. Palate: Tart and complex, with lemon juice and unsweetened grape juice creating a layered citrus-fruit profile; vodka provides a neutral alcoholic base, while powdered sugar balances the considerable acidity. Finish: Clean, tart, and slightly tannic with lingering grape and lemon.

Pro Tip

Use unsweetened or lightly sweetened grape juice as specified — adding sweetened juice makes the cocktail too sweet and masks the intended tartness.
