Change measure

A drink that follows the classic 'collins' drink formula of spirit, sour, soda. You can also use sour mix in place of the lemon juice and syrup or use a flavored vodka.
And remember, for a Tom Collins just replace the vodka with gin, and for a John Collins use a quality bourbon whisky.

Method

Pour the vodka, lemon juice, and sugar syrup into a Collins glass with ice cubes. Stir thoroughly. Top up with the club soda before garnishing with a cherry and orange slice.
