Tom Collins

With the influx of Meyer lemons at my disposal, they have taken center stage in my cooking (can you tell? Lemon Bars, Petrale Sole in Lemon Sauce, Kale Salad with Meyer Lemon Dressing…) AND bar-tending.

Tom Collins

• 2 oz gin
• 1 oz Meyer lemon juice
• 1/2 oz simple syrup
• 1 tsp of Marashino or Luxardo Cherry syrup 
• 1 Luxardo Cherry
• 1 orange slice 

Mix gin, juice and syrup in an ice filled cocktail shaker.  Strain into an ice filled glass and stir in some cherry syrup and garnish with a cherry and orange slice!

Marashino syrup will result in a more pink colored drink, but the Luxardo syrup is just as a tasty!

Cheers!
