How to Make the Tom Collins Mixed Drink

Video Transcript

"I'm going to show you how to make a Tom Collins. We're going to start off with our ice, you're going to fill your glass about halfway, just like so; and then you're going to add in two ounces of gin. Any brand of gin will do, so just pick your favorite; that's one and two. Fabulous! Then we're going to add in one ounce of lemon juice, just like that and a teaspoon of super fine sugar. We're going to shake this up. Then take a Collins glass and you're going to fill it almost all the way with ice. Go ahead and strain your concoction here into your Collins glass. You're going to fill it the rest of the way with club soda; "mmm, mmm, mmm", this is a classic drink. Put in your stirry straw and you're going to garnish this with a cherry in an orange slice. And there you have it, a Tom Collins. Cheers!"
