1886 Tom Collins
Another build on the greatest cocktail of all time – the 1886 Tom Collins has a crisp and refreshing , more sophisticated flavour profile that has established it as an acceptable drink with lunch, after work or after a meal. Traditional Tonic flavour shines, thanks to the highest quality Cinchona bark extract and with additional citrus and a kiss of sugar, the drink balances beautifully no matter what the gin base is. The addition of Franklin & Sons Club Soda creates a light, effervescent finish, making it bright and refreshing. A perfect after-work drink.
