Tom Stover

2 oz Bombay Sapphire gin
1 oz fresh lime juice
1 - 2 tsp simple syrup
3 oz ginger ale

Mix the first three ingredients with variating syrup depending on your taste in a cocktail shaker filled with ice and strain into a collins glass filled to the brim with ice. Pour over the ginger ale and stir together briefly. Garnish the drink with a sprig of mint and you have a Tom Stover. Syrup can be subsituted with powdered sugar. However, extra measures must be taken to insure the sugar dissolves and mixes evenly.
