Jerry Thomas, the Father of American Mixology and creator behind such classics as ‘How to Mix Drinks or The Bon Vivant's Companion: The Original Cocktail Guide (Hesperus Classics)’ was an avid drinker. He memorialized his favorite cocktail in 18th century America with this Tom Collins—a refreshing combination that has been recreated ever since!

It's made using gin, lemon juice, sugar and topped off by carbonated water. You can easily substitute the gin with an Australian one because they are similar enough without being too precisely alike. So go ahead and give it a try while still keeping things interesting by experimenting further until you find the best combination that suits your taste.

6. Gin and Tonic

Gin and Tonic is a light and reviving cocktail that needs only two ingredients - gin and tonic water.  Even though it seems like an easy drink to make, you can easily screw it up. The secret technique lies in the preciseness of your gin and tonic water ratio—popular ratios are 1:1 or 1:3.

Some like it light, with just enough gin to keep the taste in their mouth. Others prefer more alcohol content by reducing or doubling up on both ingredients. For us, we made our ratios 1 part of gin per 2 parts of tonic water to keep things fresh but still aromatic!
