Introduction
The template for this hot drink is the classic Tom Collins, which is often confused with the Fizz. In composition these two are almost identical; however, the Fizz is served in a pre-chilled glass without ice and mixed with a shot of soda, while the Collins is served in a long drink glass and diluted with lots of soda. Gintelligence No. 1 got its name because I discovered quite accidentally how fantastic this renowned concoction tasted warm: a crafty drink to warm you up on cold days in autumn and winter. It has an even fuller, stronger flavour if you use Dutch style gin (Jenever) instead.
