I've been a bartender for years, and have read lots of books, but it still leaves me confused!

Everytime I've made a Vodka Collins, I make it with vodka, lime, and a bit of cherry juice. Never had one ounce of a complaint...although it does not appear in any book I've read, most give other recipes. How do I make a top notch Tom Collins/vodka Collins.

Gimme ideas, gimme gimme. Thanks! Oink
great libations

Tending for 20+ years and i have always made a collins with sweet/sour mix, a hit of simple syrup add the alcohol, mix (or shake) frosted glass with a touch of 7up or whateve clear pop you have on hand.
back in the day, i always added foamy head to get the nice foam on top but nowadays it's in the mix.
good luck

Not the original recipe but one most of the clubs around here use;

1oz measure of vodka
2oz Sweet and Sour
Shake and pour into a tall glass of ice
Top with equal parts soda & 7-up
garnish with a flag
