History

This is not just a Collins with Irish whiskey, but a Ronan Collins. There is a certain Irish logic behind garnishing this cocktail with a pineapple wedge, which contributes to its uniqueness.

Though traditionally recognized as a Mike Collins, this Irish whiskey-based Collins has, in more recent times, been named after Ronan Collins, who serves as the Senior Brand Ambassador for Irish Whiskey at Pernod Ricard UK.
