A Classic with a Citrus Twist
Ready to be transported?
At The Valiant, we’re all about crafting drinks that transport you to a different place, whether that’s through a sense of nostalgia, a taste of the exotic, or a touch of elegance. Our latest addition, the Bombay Pressé Tom Collins, is no exception. This cocktail takes a timeless classic and elevates it with the innovative flavors of Bombay Pressé—a gin infused with natural Mediterranean lemons.
A Modern Twist on a Classic
The Tom Collins has been a staple in cocktail culture for over a century, known for its refreshing mix of gin, lemon juice, sugar, and soda water. But our version? It’s something special. By using Bombay Pressé, we infuse the drink with a bright, citrusy flavor that’s both familiar and delightfully unexpected. The natural lemon infusion in the gin brings a zesty vibrance that pairs perfectly with the effervescence of soda water and the subtle sweetness of sugar.
