Tom Collins Cocktail with an Elderflower Twist
A refreshing spring-time variation of the classic Tom Collins cocktail, featuring Bombay Sapphire gin and St Germain elderflower liqueur for a floral bouquet. This drink is zesty, citrusy, and perfect for warm, sunny days. Chef's tips: (1) If you can't find elderflower liqueur, elderflower cordial is a good non-alcoholic substitute that adds similar floral notes. (2) Make sure to stir and dissolve the sugar before adding the ice, as it dissolves much faster in room temperature liquid. (3) Stirring at the end is crucial to distribute the spirits and sweetness evenly throughout the long drink.
