Beat the heat with the TOM COLLINS - an easy gin drink!

Get your bottles at House of Bitter Bear 👉 https://houseofbitterbear.com Today we’re making a Tom Collins! This gin classic has been a warm weather favorite since the 1800s, and for good reason. Light, bubbly, refreshing - a winning formula that works with any base spirit. The Tom Collins is good any time of day, but best enjoyed in the sun. Cheers!
