Tom Collins
The Tom Collins is a versatile cocktail, and you can adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of simple syrup added. If you prefer it sweeter, add a bit more syrup, or if you like it more tart, you can reduce the amount of syrup. Feel free to customize it to your taste preferences. Cheers!
