A fresh tasting twist on the classic Tom Collins, Jan Collins (pronounced Yan) uses KETEL ONE vodka in place of gin to give it crisp citrus and honey notes. It was created especially for WORLD CLASS by USA’s Bartender of the Year Jeff Bell, and is a deliciously zesty cocktail.

A small, double-ended measuring cup often made of stainless steel that looks somewhat similar to an egg timer. Most jiggers have a 25ml measure at one end and a 50ml measure at the other. Any glass or jug with measurements can also be used.
