Black Cherry Collins
Method
Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Simple Syrup
In a small saucepan, combine equal parts water and sugar (1 cup each). Heat over medium heat until the sugar has completely dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool. This will yield more than you need, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to a month.
