英语词汇tom collins的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

Tom Collins. Many sources tell us that the Tom Collins—that refreshing, tall drink made with gin (or vermouth), lemon (or lime), sugar, and soda water—honors its bartender-creator. Yet no one has been able to establish who Tom Collins was, where he came from, or when he first mixed the drink. Variations on the Tom Collins include the John Collins (whiskey) and the Marimba Collins (rum). The Tom Collins is claimed by many, but the lack of evidence indicates that its real creator didn’t mix well, at least socially. The best prospect is probably John Col- lins, a 19th-century bartender at London’s Limmer Hotel who did not devise but was famous for his gin sling—a tall gin and lemon drink that resembles the Tom Collins.
