INGREDIENTS
A good glug (about 50ml) of Rose Gin by Tinkture
75ml fresh lemon cordial
100ml soda / sparkling water
Lots of ice
A lemon twirl to garnish and a rose petal for added beauty
METHOD
First up lots of ice. Then add the sparkling water and lemon cordial (fresh lemon with sugar syrup) and mix.
Gently pour Rose Gin on the top – do not stir just yet – look closely as your golden Rose Gin gently meets the lemon mix and starts turning pink as it cascades down into the glass. Enjoy your moment, then stir - adding your chosen garnish and serve.
We have added measures to the ingredients as a guide, but to get your Tom Collins just perfect you need to trust your taste buds. Don’t be afraid to add more lemon, sugar, or Gin!
