Era of Origin

Sling this Singapore staple from the comfort of your own bar cart.

Make this classic at home.

Luxardo Cherry Morlacco

Luxardo London Dry Gin

             round 1915, bartender Ngiam Tong Boon
             created the very first Gin Sling at the Long

             Bar in Singapore’s Raffles Hotel — and sparked a decades-long slinging of gin cocktails by bartenders around the world.

 

Boon’s cocktail — now known as the Singapore Sling — originally combined gin, soda water, and cherry brandy,  with every subsequent rendition evolving to include fresh fruit juice, sweet and sour, grenadine, Benedictine, and more in the mix. But as dynamic and one-of-a-kind as those versions of the drink are, we’ll be keeping our version quite simple… and close to its classic Singaporean roots.

A short story in the spirit of Ernest himself: “For drinking. This cocktail. Always enjoyed.”

Mexican tequila and Italian apéritifs make for a bracing, complex summertime cocktail.
