Singapore Sling - 2 recipes!

- Today I'm going to show you how to make not one, but two Singapore Slings! And I'm using two gins from Singapore to do it - how perfect is that? The Singapore Sling is a cocktail nobody can agree on. That's because there seem to be countless recipes for this drink. It would help if we knew for certain the original recipe created over 100 years ago - but we don't. What we do know is it's a gin-based cocktail that fits right into the world of Tiki, and you can spin the Singapore Sling any way you like. Here's two recipes I use, depending on my mood. Cheers!

Thanks again to Tanglin Gin!
Let me know which version you try! Cheers! 🍹😊
Thanks Anders! Got my wife some gin for her birthday 🧉
Darn it! I had the free shipping, then had an error on the site and when I refreshed it made me go back to paying for shipping
-edit- looks like you need to buy two bottles for the free shipping? Did that and got it this time, so I’m excited about getting those in!
Your shirts are always on point, your drinks too
nothing for french viewers... so sad
I picked up some bottles. They were out of one of the variations you used. So I got the orchid. Any suggestions of what to do with that?
Thanks for highlighting our national cocktail Anders! It’s such an iconic Sling that has now evolved into other forms in many cocktails bars here in Singapore! - From a grateful Singaporean viewer. ps - Congrats on the sponsorship with Tanglin. They have done really well here and around South East Asia. I am so excited to see it being appreciated all over the world now.
Thank you, Benjamin! Loved the Tanglin in this one. Cheers!
Anders: “It’s that simple. You just need to have a whole liquor cabinet”
Me: “Wow this may be the first cocktail video that I happen to have all the ingredients for!”
Update: I made the drinks and prefer the 2.0 but both were great
Lies again? Long Ass Movies
Anders, congrats on your partnership with Tanglin Gin! They sky is the limit. Next stop 100k 🥳 Cheers!
Thanks, Jack! Let's go! 🥃
I honestly just realized that he's under 100k subs. The quality of production, the videos and how likable he is, if anyone would ask me I'd say couple hundred k for sure!
It's just a matter of time! I think this channel will continue to take off.
I love your cocktail channel, the way you do it is perfect.
Keeps it fun and interesting at the same time.
Love what you do Anders! I’ve taken up making craft cocktails because of your videos. I ordered the Tanglin Gin from Curiada and they sent me a handwritten note thanking me for ordering and it said they had a great time working with you. So cool!
We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold. I remember saying something like "I feel a bit lightheaded; maybe you should drive...." And suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us and the sky was full of what looked like huge bats, all swooping and screeching and diving around the car, which was going about a hundred miles an hour with the top down to Las Vegas.
I just love and enjoy each and every video. Thank you for sharing!
I’m such in respect of you Anders. It’s really a pleasure to see someone so passionate about his profession. Respect.
Great video, Anders! Thanks for doing it. I may try one of those tonight!
happy for your sponsors, keep up the good work
Sponsors!!! Lets go Anders! Well deserved. Keep on keepin' on. Love your channel.
You are the goat Sr. Thank you for your in-depth knowledge which helps me remember the makeup of the many cocktails.
Wow! The first version is nice, but 2.0 is OUTSTANDING! Great video - keep em coming!
Hi Anders, I tried your 2.0 version (I'm a big fan of the classic Singapore Sling), and I must admit it's a killer. For my personal taste, I would cut back a little bit the Benedictine (0.5 oz instead of 1oz) and just add a touch of the soda water for the bubble... but a GREAT alternative when you ran out of pineapple juice and you STILL want a Singapore Sling. THANK YOU. Great variation. Keep on doing these, I really like your content. Cheers from Paris, France !
Great video Anders. And those gins looks really good. Cheers!
Great video as always Anders! Love it
You do great work. You have charm and poise. Thanks.
My favorite cocktail, thank you!
Anders! discovered your channel a few weeks ago. Absolutely loving it. You're so clear and concise with your recipes and you package it up in such an entertaining way. I feel like I'm learning to mix cocktails from you the same way I learned how to cook from Alton Brown. Keep up the great work!
With colder weather just around the corner I'd love to see your take on a Hot Toddy!
P.S. ordered and then made my first Negronis this week after seeing your episode and I'm now officially a Negroni fan...
Congrats on the first of many sponsorships Anders, keep up the good work
Thank you for adding the quantity via the metric system (for us swedes). Keep up the great work!
I was hoping to see Az taste both of them at the end and tell us which one is better! :D Great video Anders!
Thanks, Dimitar! Az loved them both too - we'll have to get her on camera again soon. Cheers!
@@AndersErickson Need more Az on camera, she is always fun to see doing taste tests!
They both look fabulous!
Great video! Cant believe I found this amazing channel at 4k subs and now you’re so close to 100k!! Great work, Anders
Yay!!!! Friday is the best day! This channel is everything! So excited you're almost to 90k!
Yes! Thank you as always - enjoy the weekend!! 🍹
Great video! I’ve watched all your videos and I’m always excited to see your new ones on Friday! Keep up the great content! Thank you for all the effort you put in, it’s great content and I’m happy to see you getting the recognition and rewards from it! Cheers!
Thank you so much! Happy you're enjoying the content - cheers!
Congrats on your sponsorship, you really earned it
I happen to have lived for the last 6 years in the home of Tanglin Gin and the Singapore sling. The covid response here has been very, very strict but has also kept us relatively very safe on global terms. But we have been locked down pretty much since Mar 2020. I have so far had 3 "covid hobbies" to keep me sane, one of which is classic cocktails all thanks to your channel. It is fun, it has led me down rabbitholes of research, and it has given me something to look forward to every weekend. Your channel is well made, informative, approachable and friendly... everyone tells you this. But in these weird times we are living it has also been more to me, and I suspect others. Regardless of the future of the channel, please remember you have made a difference in my sanity, and I am sure in many others as well. Love your work, both of you! Cheers & "to the bar!"..
So proud of you, congrats! Your channel is great. I was begging for months so thank you very much for making a Singapore sling. Really appreciate it. I am absolutely trying your 2.0 Version soon. Can’t wait! 😎
Hope you enjoy the recipe and find it was worth the wait! Cheers! 🍹
So happy you made the video I asked for! And I'm also happy you're doing so well, I've been a subscriber since the early days. Keep up with the great work!
Finally your Singapore Sling 😀Thank you so much! Enjoy the weekend!
Congratulations on your sponsorship! Super excited to try the black powder gin. I have alllllmost everything to make this one. Seems to be my cocktail story every time 😄
I hope you enjoy the gin as much as I do! Always nice to have a good navy strength handy - thank you so much!
This. sounds. amazing!
Great cocktail and great story behind it. Cheers!
I love hearing the mysterious history of this drink and the videography and interplay of light when "building" the drink was absolutely beautiful! And sponsorship is a big deal! Way to go Andres et al.!
Thank you, Stephen! Cheers!
Congratulations for the sponsorship! Thank you for the support for my country's first distillery and great job on the amazing presentations of the Singapore Sling.
Love from Singapore!
Thanks, Royston! Cheers!
Oh! I got all the ingredients to make the 1st version! I plan on making it this weekend! Congrats are getting a sponsor!
I stepped up my game under the lockdown last year . I went from 3 bottles to 30 or so. You helped out with that by watching your videos. Making quality cocktails hurts the pocket a little but so rewarding when you take that sip . A big fan of Ward 8.
I love a sling! Had my first on the rooftop of the Fullerton Bay Hotel in Singapore.
Also, it's a small touch but I really appreciate you including the measurements in mls!
Thanks, James! Hope you enjoy these recipes - sorry I can't provide the rooftop in Singapore!
congratulatioons to the sponsorship, love to see you succeed
YAY SPONSOR! So thrilled you're on the road to making this channel pay you what you're worth.
WOO!!! Ya'll got a sponser! I'm so proud and happy for you both!! You guys make GREAT content :D
Thanks, Jennifer!! 🍹
Congrats on the sponsorship mate. Been watching for a while so am excited to see you start getting the credit you deserve!
Thanks, Ryan! 🍹
Wow dude this video did NOT disappoint. I'm super excited to try your version! And congrats on the sponsorship!!
Thanks, Dominic! Glad you liked the video - hope you like the recipe 😬😂Cheers!
Great video as always Anders! Definitely trying your version! Signapore sling is a drink I've tried so many versions and never found one I like. Yours might be a winner for me! Cheers!
Thanks, Rob! Hopefully this will be the one to change your mind! If not, well don't blame me 😂
Once I'm back home, united with my home bar I'll make this.
I've heard of it, but I've never had it. Looking forward to it!!
Congrats to the second recipe, amazing work Anders. I use a similar spec, but with orange bitters in place of the Angustura, and a little less Benedictine. Some old recipes use both bitters actually. Have a nice weekend. 🏖
Thanks, David! I contemplated using an orange bitters for the second, but already had the Ango from the first recipe. Amazing how many different takes you can do with this drink. Cheers my friend - happy Friday! 🍹
Love your channel - huge fan, late to the party but enjoying catching up. Keep up the good work. Now, to the bar!
You're not late, Steven - you're right on time! Happy you're enjoying the channel!
Just made one, the second version, highly recommend it!
Congratulations on the sponsorship Anders! I love your channel!
Appreciate that, Saleem! Cheers!
thaaaaaaanks! finally, a good version of a S. sling !!!!
Hey Anders! Congrats on your sponsorship! You are doing a great job man!
Cheers, Nikolas! Thank you!
Was waiting for the 1oz of Angostura after you said equal parts.. lol. Very well done, and congrats on the sponsorship! I was nervous seeing this video was sponsored, but the passion you radiate in your content makes you come off as truly genuine. Can't wait for the next video!
Haha I wondered if anyone would catch the Angostura amount! Thanks, Stephen!
Amazing ! Congrats on the sponsor! Cheers!
I’m in love with these videos. That is all.
Your my favorite Mixology TH-camr now, no politics, no long and drawn out stories, just cocktails and I love it!
Just back from Singapore where we had a sling at Raffles. Looking forward to trying both these recipes 🍸
Congrats with the sponsoring :) keep up the great videos ! I made the Whiskey Sour yesterday and it was so so good ! I made two 😂
A second sour - that's a good sign 😉
Made both versions for movie night. Both are great. Took the 2.0 and added 2 dashes of clove bitters. If you're keen to, I strongly recommend trying them.
I’ve watched all your videos.. the best videos out there. Keep it up!! BTW I like your shirt in this video. Wondering where u got it from.
Wonderful that you are working with Tanglin. 😃
Hopefully they will be later known as one of the first brands to sponsor you.
Great work as always. Cheers Anders!
Thanks, Tomaž! I hope so too. Cheers!
Nice balance on your recipe.
Yaaaay!! Maybe you saw my request for this on IG. So happy. Definitely going to try them both. Ordering the gin, now! Thanks, Anders. 🙏🏼
P.S. Congrats on the sponsorship! I ordered them both and got the free shipping deal!
I did see it - Tada! 😂 Thanks, John - happy you got the shipping deal!
@@AndersErickson 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Spontent baby! Congrats y’all keep up the great work
Also love these dual version vids. *spoiler alert* I usually end up liking Anders version a bit more ;)
Haha glad you like it! I always like the comparison videos too. Cheers!
PLEASE do a video on how you make a Bahama Mama. It's one of my favorite summer time drinks and I'd like to enjoy your version of it before the warm weather goes away. Thanks!
Awesome dude you inspired me to make Drinks at home and I’m fully invested in it now and making good stuff … old fashioned has become my favourite one now
Love hearing that! Cheers and happy mixing!
Niiiiice! My wife and I flew to Japan on Singapore Air and we ordered about 4 of these on the flight! :-) It was so good. I'm looking forward to adding this to my home menu! Thanks, Anders!
Next best thing to flying to Japan! ✈️
These look great Anders, I really like the second recipe.
It's nice to have options. Thanks, David! Cheers!
Congrats on the sponsorship! More success to come.
Thank you, Mark!
The presentation on these drinks makes me not want to indulge due to how beautiful these look. Congrats on that sponsor! Cheers!
Cheers, Jeremy! They taste even better than they look 😊
Congrats on the sponsorship! By faaar the best cocktail channel on TH-cam!
Thanks, Cameron! 🍹😊
Awesome video! 😁😁
Watching this from Singapore! Coincidentally, my last cocktail out was the Singapore Sling at Long Bar just before dining out was restricted. It’s resumed now, so “to the bar!” as you say. Love the content and really enjoy your videos!
Hope to get to Long Bar one day! Love that you're watching from Singapore - cheers!
I'll try the 2.0! Thanks Anders!
Cheers, Johan! I'd be curious to hear what you think. Thanks! 🍹
It’s interesting how much the simplified version really resembles the full version. For way less faffing around I’d assume to just make it that way 👍
Congrats on Tanglin sponsorship! Getting a bottle right now!
Cheers, Tim! You'll have to let me know your thoughts. I know I can trust your opinions on gin!
Dang I was gonna pick one up but Curiada doesn't ship to me yet. Probably a good thing. Not sure my wallet can handle it.
Congrats Anders
I tried both versions and they are both excellent in their own right. I appreciate the pineapple in the original.
I've notice in the video of a Raffles bartender includes Cointreau.
I'd never tasted any of these before and they are all delicious but I discovered last night that the combination of Heering Cherry, Benedictine, and Clément Creole Schrubb is spectacular.
I have actually not made the Singapore Sling yet but will be experimenting with Pineapple or not and seltzer or not.
Glad to see some sponsorships.
Yooo congrats on the sponsorship! You're gonna be the Babish of the bar :D Interesting drinks, will definitely give them a try
Please do, Art. I can't decide which one I like more! Cheers!
I don't know why it took me so long to subscribe since I've been watching you make some of my favorite drinks for weeks now! The Singapore sling did "officially" originate in Raffles but it's suspected to have come from a local, what now would be called, a dive bar. Raffles is still super nice and if you ever travel there, make sure to head 565° Fahrenheit for a great steak! Miss that place. Cheers!
I know my tastes and I already know Singapore 2.0 would be my fav. My mouth just waters thinking about it.
Cheers, Chris! 🍹
Anders, great videos. You should consider a series for those recipes where one minor change in ingredients converts the drink into another one (eg Long Island-> Grateful Dead). Maybe add to comparable sips?
heck yeah bud; good on you for getting a booze based sponsor! If I was a distillery I'd be dying for a plug like you; you make the liquors look absolutely incredible!
Thumbs up for a sponsor! Love your videos. Cheers!
Thank you so much! 🥃
Ordered all three gins they offered. Can’t wait to try this!
Cheers, Lee! I think you'll love the different expressions - thank you!
@@AndersErickson While I will definitely try them in this drink, TBH I’m going to try “Negroni 3 ways” with them. :)
I am shocked and impressed at the same time- ure the only guy in the western hemisphere that can pronounce the “NG’’ sound….😃 in words or names👏👏👏
You inspired me to make one for myself tonight for my nitecap! Congrats on the sponsor. Only scratching the surface pal. Cheers Anders! 🥃
You're the best, Vino! Saw your sling on Insta - hope it's kicked off a good weekend for you! 🍹
Calling it right now: Tanglin is going to be the hottest new trendy gin in cocktail bars across the US.
Superb gin - also a shout out to Brass Lion, made closer to Raffles hotel :-)
I completely get the tiki vs classic style… one for a summery afternoon the other one for a fall evening before or after dinner drink… nice to have some seasonal transitional cocktails. ;)
Thanks, Jake! A sling for every occasion!
Your are right about everyone having a different recipe. I have 13 different recipes for the Singapore sling, well now 15. It is amazing how many different recipes there are. I have to tease you when are you doing a Malort cocktail (living in Chicago), or a Tom and Jerry (Another Wisconsin favorite), or an aquavit cocktail (your namesake). Love your channel both you and Az produce high quality content.
15 recipes! Wow - I'm curious about your favorite. You're absolutely right about the others cocktails - I'll have to cover them all!
@@AndersErickson My current favorite is from Smugglers cove and is found in their book. But I also like a recipe from the Educated Barfly that he made recently the one made with London Dry Gin.
So I tried the traditional recipe of four ounces of pineapple juice, and yeah, that just overpowers it. So I dialed it back to 1.5 ounces, and upped the Benedictine and triple sec to half an ounce, and that made it just as refreshing but much more complex. Thanks for the video!
I live in Portland, Oregon. I think your videos are getting people who haven't been cocktail makers into making their own drinks. I tried to buy some ingredients for the Tradewinds and they were sold out of both the Gifford (apricot Liquer) and the dark rum. The store manager said they'd burnt through a couple boxes of both recently. Long story short I think you're a great person to be associate with anybody's liquor sales. Please keep producin the great content--it's all high end and so applicable.
Really appreciate that - thank you! Hope you're able to find some of these bottles!
You must go to Raffles and have their sling. Lovely resultant. Singapore is amazing. And I like your shirt too. 🤙🏽
Hi Anders, UK viewer here, love your channel and congrats again on hitting 200k! Came back to this video to comment to ask if there is an alternative for Dom Benedictine in this drink - I’m really struggling to get my hands on any here. Any suggestions? Love your videos!
Whooohoo! Congrats on sponsorship!!!
Thanks, Sue! Hope you're enjoying the weekend!
Great video as always, Anders! Really liked hearing about the cocktail's Southeast Asian roots. Any chance we'll also see the Jungle Bird in a future video?
Thanks, David! I can see that happening 😊
Pineapple doesn't always play well with my tongue, so I appreciate the updated version without all the juice. Looking forward to trying it out sometime.
Thanks, Jacob! Hope you enjoy the recipe and enjoy the weekend! 🍹
Way late on this but super excited because i recently (FINALLY) crossed the border from Canada to US and brought back a bottle of Cherry Herring. (You will NOT find Cherry heering anywhere on the east coast in Canada, probably the West coast too). I saw the official IBA recipe and noticed the whopping 4 oz of pineapple juice?? I like your idea of 1 oz. and totally gonna try your equal parts 2.0 version. Cheers!
