Frooty Singapore Sling

Intro & Description

The Singapore sling is a classic gin cocktail that has delighted drinkers for over a century. The popular story is that it was developed around 1915 by Ngiam Tong Boon at the Long Bar in Singapore's Raffles Hotel. Though its origin is debatable, it is a semisweet, sparkling gin punch with a delightfully complex flavour.

A fascinating cocktail that is well worth your time to explore.
