TOM COLLINS RECIPE - NYT COOKING



Tom Collins Recipe - NYT Cooking image

The Tom Collins is perhaps the ultimate highball and one of history’s most enduring cocktails. It was historically made with Old Tom gin, which is sweeter than London dry gin, but the drink works well with both types of the spirit. (Old Tom only recently became available again, thanks to the clamoring of mixologists.) A peculiar methodology is used in mixing up a Tom Collins. Though it contains fresh juice, which usually dictates that the drink must be shaken, it is nonetheless often built in the glass in which it is served. But shaking the drink and then straining it into an ice-filled highball works as well, and arguably leads to a better integrated cocktail.

Provided by Robert Simonson

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 ounces Old Tom or London Dry gin
1 ounce simple syrup
3/4 ounce lemon juice
Soda water
Lemon wedge, for garnish
Cocktail cherry, for garnish

Steps:

  • Shake gin, syrup and juice with ice until chilled, about 15 seconds. Strain into an ice-filled highball. Top with soda water. Garnish with lemon wheel or wedge and a cherry.

RAMOS GIN FIZZ COCKTAIL RECIPE - DIFFORD'S GUIDE



Ramos Gin Fizz Cocktail Recipe - Difford's Guide image

One of the great classic cocktails. The perfect balance of sweet and sour is enhanced by the incredibly smooth, almost fluffy mouthfeel.

Total Time 07 minutes0S

Prep Time 07 minutes0S

Yield 1

Number Of Ingredients 9

60 ml Gin - Old Tom gin
15 ml Lemon juice (freshly squeezed)
15 ml Lime juice (freshly squeezed)
22.5 ml Sugar syrup (rich) 2 sugar to 1 water
1.25 ml Orange flower/blossom water
3 Vanilla extract (optional)
22.5 ml Pasteurised egg white
22.5 ml Single cream / half-and-half
Soda (club soda)

Steps:

  • SHAKE first 8 ingredients with ice and strain back into shaker
  • DRY SHAKE (without ice) and slowly pour 2/3rds of the contents of the shaker from a higher than normal height into a chilled empty glass (no ice in glass) while simultaneously pouring soda with your other hand
  • The cocktail and soda should form a single stream of liquid falling into the glass
  • As when pouring a Guinness, to achieve a perfect head on a Ramos Gin Fizz, the cocktail should be left to settle for at least a minute before topping off with what remains in the shaker
  • Ideally, during the settling period, the glass should be placed in a glass froster/fridge/freezer
  • As the final contents of the shaker are poured into the glass so the head should rise like a souffle
  • Some Ramos Gin Fizz recipes, and indeed Henry Charles Ramos' original recipe, call for old tom gin (also our preference), in which case you may need to reduce the amount of sugar syrup depending on your old tom, personal tastes and citrus fruit
