This drink is a fun twist on the classic Tom Collins.
A Tom Collins is a cocktail made from gin, lemon juice, sugar, and carbonated water. This Limoncello Gin Collins adds … you guessed it … limoncello to the mix. You can use store-bought limoncello in this recipe, but I’m a big fan of using homemade.
