Muddled Fig Tom Collins

Today’s featured vodka fall cocktail is a muddled fig Tom Collins made with vodka. I’m still lucky enough to currently have a fair number of ripe figs on my two trees in the backyard. Therefore, I’m continuing to use them on some fabulous fig vodka cocktail recipes that are great to enjoy this fall season! This Tom Collins is another classic cocktail and this recipe adds a minor addition, muddled figs, to give it some fall season flair. This is a very refreshing drink and sure to please!
