Collins Mix (...I just lost all credibility)

Can anyone suggest a Collins mix that's at least passable?

Thanks

I have no idea. Why do you need a mix? Lemon juice and sugar, right?

I'm just tired of having a bunch of half empty bottles of club soda in the refrigerator.

Try the Phil Collins mix!

why not just make sparkling mai tais or any other drink and add 2oz or less of club soda to it, adjust to taste...

Not a bad idea. Thanks.

I actually have the same problem all the time. The club soda liter is 99 cents, the individual six pack is 3.99....but since I don't use it all that often, the liter gets wasted each time.

Vons/Safeway usually has Club soda on sale for $1.25 a sixer.

I like the extended remix of In the Air Tonight but, I really like the Tupac remix version.

Doh, juice one lemon and disolve 2 teaspoons of powdered sugar in it. That should be enough for two Collins cocktails. Increase accordingly.

So, theirs is 1-1. Minus the gin for just the mix.

Try a Palm Springs Collins:

Make a Tom Collins and to it add a splash of cranberry juice, twist of orange and a cherry to boot.

Hey baby, it's Palm Springs!
