Fizzes & Collins Cocktails

70 drinks · Updated October 2026

Fizzes and Collins drinks extend the sour formula of spirit, citrus and sugar with carbonated water. A Gin Fizz is traditionally shaken before soda is added and commonly served without ice in the glass. A Tom Collins is generally served tall over ice. The Ramos Gin Fizz adds cream, egg white and orange flower water to its gin and citrus base. This page also gathers related carbonated drinks, so the family resemblance is not an identical ingredient list: the Gin Rickey, for example, traditionally omits sugar.
