For an extra layer of flavor, consider using a flavored gin, such as one infused with botanicals or citrus. Adjust the amount of simple syrup to suit your preferred level of sweetness. Taste as you go! Ensure your club soda is well-chilled to maintain the cocktail's crispness. Experiment with different garnishes, such as a cherry or an orange slice, to personalize your Tom Collins.
