John Collins
A bright, bubbly cocktail, the John Collins is a simple mix of bourbon, lemon juice, and sugar, topped with club soda. It’s built directly in the glass, making it a quick and easy drink to assemble. The combination of bourbon, fresh lemon, and a touch of sweetness creates a balanced base, which gets a refreshing lift from the soda. A maraschino cherry and orange slice finish it off, adding a bit of color and aroma.
