Origins of Maraschino Collins
The Maraschino Collins has its roots in the classic Tom Collins cocktail, which dates back to the 19th century. The Tom Collins is made with gin, lemon juice, sugar, and soda water. It's believed to have originated in London but gained popularity in America during Prohibition when gin was readily available.
The Maraschino version adds an extra layer of complexity with the addition of maraschino liqueur. Maraschino liqueur is made from distilled sour cherries and pits, giving it a unique flavor profile that pairs well with citrusy ingredients like lemon juice.
