Bombay Sapphire Blackberry Meyer Lemon Tom Collins

Bombay Sapphire Blackberry and Meyer Lemon Tom Collins

February 15 by Priscilla 2 Comments

The Tom Collins cocktail is the definitive refreshing drink and, for my money, the original “Skinny” cocktail before skinny became an obsession – I say that because gin, at 97 calories per 1-1/2 ounces is lower in calories than beer and wine, and the sparkling water used to top off a Tom Collins has zero […]
