Tom Collins Cocktail Recipe
This Tom Collins recipe is easy to make with gin, lemon juice, simple syrup, and club soda. Plus, because it’s a long drink, meaning that the alcohol is mixed with a good amount of soda water, it’s not as strong as some other cocktails. This makes it perfect for sipping on a hot summer day.

If you’re new to making cocktails at home, I think this Tom Collins recipe is a great place to start. You don’t need any special equipment like a cocktail shaker or strainer, because this drink is traditionally stirred, not shaken. Club soda or sparkling water – It adds fizz to the cocktail and dilutes it into a lower-ABV, sip-able drink.
You’ll also need ice for serving, and—if you like—a maraschino cherry or Luxardo cherry for garnish. Pour in some more simple syrup.
When you love the flavor, garnish with a lemon slice and/or cocktail cherry, and enjoy!
