📜 History

The Tom Collins template has welcomed spirit substitutions since its nineteenth-century origins. Aquavit slots into the tall, fizzy format with ease, its caraway and dill botanicals adding a savory herbal note that brightens alongside lemon juice and soda. The Scandi Collins has become a popular summer recommendation from aquavit producers in Norway and the United States as an accessible introduction to the spirit.
