The "Perfect Collins" Logic
To achieve a professional-grade 10 oz highball, follow this standard ratio:
$$2 \text{ oz (Gin or Vodka)} + 3 \text{ oz (Master of Mixes Tom Collins Mix)} + 3 \text{ oz (Club Soda)} = \text{The Perfect Serve}$$
Use Cases
- The Classic Tom Collins: Shake spirits and mix with ice; strain into a tall glass, top with club soda, and garnish with a lemon wheel and a Lynch Maraschino Cherry.
- Sparkling Gin Rickey: Use as the citrus-sweet base for a lighter, more refreshing take on a classic gin sour.
- High-Margin Mocktail: Mix 4 oz with 4 oz of club soda and a splash of Monin Strawberry Syrup for a gourmet sparkling lemonade.
- Bulk Event Punch: Combine 2 bottles of mix with a 750ml bottle of Gin and 2 liters of club soda in a punch bowl for effortless large-scale serving.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the same as Sour Mix?
It is similar, but typically a Tom Collins mix is clearer and more lemon-focused, whereas a standard "Sweet and Sour" mix may include orange or lime notes and foaming agents.
Do I need to add extra sugar?
No. This mix is already perfectly sweetened with pure cane sugar to balance the tartness of the lemon juice.
Can I use this for a Whiskey Sour?
Absolutely. While labeled for Tom Collins, the lemon and sugar balance makes it an excellent, high-quality base for a Whiskey Sour or an Amaretto Sour.
How many drinks can I make per bottle?
Using a standard 3 oz (90 ml) pour per cocktail, one 1-liter bottle provides approximately 11 servings.
