My local Pub makes a Railway Sling named for Railway Ave that goes by Pub. It has: Gin,Drambuie,Stambecco maraschino amaro,triple sec,3 juices,simple syrup,Luxardo cherry. Cheers Bruce!
The drinks are really good man. The history as well.. idk why you only have 4k subs and 800 views when Tipsy Bartender has like 3M subs and hundreds of thousands of views when he is making Oreos with ice cream and Bailey's. So sad man. Thank you for what you're doing. Really appreciate it. Keep up. Thank you again. No more words.. 😣😶
Thanks for the kind words! I wonder the same thing too ha! I know that some viewers find my episodes to be on the long side and just wanna see the recipe. I think what sets me apart from other cocktail channels is the history I share and stories I tell.
Bruce, you are a joy to watch, we absolutely love your videos and my brother really gets into the Christmas specials that you do, keep the videos coming, thank you for what you do!
I was fortunate to have Singapore Slings at the Long Bar when I stayed at the Raffles Hotel in 1983. The bar coasters at the Long Bar contain the recipe for the Singapore Sling with the exception of one ingredient withheld as a "secret" ingredient which is really not so secret as it is grenadine juice. But we managed to coax the bartender to divulge the "secret" ingredient not listed on the coaster. It was truly fun with an old world atmosphere of lingering British colonialism. I stayed in the "W. Somerset Maugham" Suite with an ornate canopy bed, bigger than king size, and sunken bathroom. Lavish!
Lavish indeed! I've seen pictures of the Somerset Maugham Suite. Sounds like a good time. Thanks for sharing your story. I can only dream that one day I'll get to Raffles for a Singapore Sling. Cheers!
O.M.G. Thank you, thank you thank, you, I looked for this receipt for years and now with your receipt I can make a perfect Singapore Sling Love it just like in the 1960 sixties and 70 ties Thank you.
I don't plan to spend a ton on Bénédictine (I'd like a mini) but the Cherry Heering could make a banging cherries jubilee in addition to the brandy! Either way this isn't a cheap drink if you don't have these liqueurs on hand.
One of my favorite cocktails. When I was in Singapore 1988, the Raffles Hotel was making 2,000/day using 20,000 bottles of Beefeater Gin/yr. The Strraits Sling is new to me. Cheers
When I was a young marine , 1st time away from home in 1971 on Okinawa on my way to Vietnam i saw an intriguing drink at the bar and ordered one . I asked the Japanese barman what it was and low and behold it was a Singapore sling . its been "my drink " ever since . fastforewad to 1975 platoon sgt. Howard just off operation Frequent Wind helping to evacuate thousands of Vietnamese off the coast of Vung Tao Vietnam is sitting at the bar in the Raffles hotel in Singapore sipping a well earned Singapore sling . still " my drink " some may dismiss it as Kool-aid and " not a mans drink " but funny , sipping that drink sure has some memories .
Hmm, I just read about the Singapore sling from my bartender and cocktail book with recipes. And now you sir has made one. Salute to you, for the video. Keep up the good work.
Seriously Bruce you read my mind, I've been looking up ways to make the Singapore Sling and I haven't found a even one consistent cocktail recipe to use but thank goodness you're here to provide not only with the ingredients but the entertainment Thank you Bruce, I appreciate all that you've done and frankly hopefully you hear about me running my own bar down here in Texas, much praise Neal Behymer.
Bruce and gang!!!! Awesome looking drink! Ooooh, I remember having a few of those in my day. Maybe I'll try then again!!! Great video, as always. Cheers!
BarTalk&Cocktails that's great to hear, more content from you and the crew is what I like to hear once I start my new job next week you'll be getting a new page on supporter.
Fantastic video as always! I'm curious, I've noticed that at the end of your shake you get quiet, look serious, and bring the shaker closer to your ear. Are you determining the length of the shake by how it sounds or is there another rule of thumb? Thanks!
You're partly correct and I'm happy to see you're so attentive to detail Kevin. I do listen to the shake as the cocktail changes structure. However, I'm not really conscious of doing it. For me, it's more of a feel thing. I can't explain it but, after shaking cocktails for more than 40 years, I don't really think about it too much anymore. Thanks for watching! Cheers
A God tier drink. I have trouble in France making it properly because while Bénédictine and Cointreau are obviously easy to get here (this is not a rule of thumb by the way, Domaine de Canton ginger liqueur might be produced in Charente, but it's a bitch to find it here as it's made mostly for export), it's kind of hard to get Peter Heering cherry liqueur as it's not easily available in shops here so I tend to replace it by guignolet. I have yet to try it with Heering. Also, I can reliably find Angostura Bitters only in Belgium, oddly.
@@BarTalkCocktails i spent $150 on the liquor lol. I’m like a kid in a candy store. The only thing I couldn’t find was herring brand cherry brandy and had to substitute it with HiramWalker Cherry brandy.
Hi! I guess I should have been clearer in my narrative of Schloss Kirsch as I was describing it. When I said: "In the German speaking region where Kirsch originated", I meant specifically the name Kirsch and not the brand at that point. Actually, the name Kirsch has two origins. Firstly, the German origin being either a topographical name for someone who lived near a cherry orchard or a wild cherry tree. It may also be an occupational name for a gatherer or seller of cherries, or it may be a nickname for a person with a rosy complexion, all deriving from the Germanic Kirsh (baum) meaning cherry (tree). Secondly, it may be of Hebrew origin being an Askenazic ornamental name, one of the many taken from words for trees and other elements of the natural world. Sorry for the confusion. Thanks for watching and writing in. Cheers!
I’m German as well. My family is from the Austrian German border regions. I’m talking four to five generations ago. Unfortunately I’ve never had the pleasure to visit.
Excellent master!!! Somany thanks Mister!!! I Just found you and your Channel, but believe me, you Will really help me to get Bartender position, with you tips.
You got it right, Adam. It is a scale, a vintage one I found at a second-hand store for $10. It's not the best at being accurate but it was the best deal of the day. You never know what you'll find at second-hand stores. Cheers!
@@BarTalkCocktails thanks so much! Gonna look for one of those I love it, I love you’re channel too. It’s the best bartending channel on TH-cam. Genuinely. You are truly an inspiration for me & the best type of person. More people need the positivity, class and energy that you do. It’s a depressing time but you’ve brought some light into my life So glad I came across the channel. One day I’m gonna open up a cocktail club, maybe one day you could come and see it? Who knows. I’ll always be watching though & will stay a consistent viewer, hope you’re days great!
It's an antique for sure. I found it at a thrift store. I usually go looking for glassware at least once a month at second hand stores. You never know what you'll find there.
Luxardo Maraschino isn't really interchangeable with Cherry Heering despite their both being cherry liqueurs. By comparison, Cherry Heering is much richer, sweeter, and thicker than maraschino. And then there is the colour. Heering is a deep, wine-dark red colour and a big contrast to the transparent clarity of maraschino. That said, it could still work in a Singapore Sling, however, the taste will be slightly drier with a noticeable difference in taste. I say, have fun experimenting. Cheers!
One of the biggest differences between Cherry Herring and Cherry Kijafa is Herring is made with neutral grain alcohol whereas Kijafa is a fortified fruit wine base. Herring is dark red with a flavour of black-cherries that is not overly sweet. It's rich like cherry jam with hints of wood and almond notes. It's actually aged in casks for three to five years. The alcohol content is 24% abv or 48 proof. I like it because it doesn't have a medicinal cough syrup-like taste that many cherry-flavoured distilled spirits have. Kijafa's colour has a dark purplish-red colour that has a nose of intense sugar candy, cherries, beets, and prunes with molasses notes thrown in for good measure. I find it has a strong beet flavour aftertaste. It's smooth enough in the mouth but it's very sweet. Best to mix with soda just to cut that sweetness. The alcohol content is 16% abv or 32 proof. Cheers!
I've had Knob Creek Single Barrel before. It's a great sipper all on it's own and definitely a warming alcohol at 120 proof. I love the copper colour, the toffee aroma, the honey and dried apricot thing going on. You made a good investment. As far as cocktails are concerned, try the Brown Derby Cocktail. I covered that one in episode 31. It's a great tasting cocktail. Also, you could try 1.5 oz. Knob Creek, .75 oz. Sweet Vermouth and .25 oz. Apricot Brandy and a couple dashes of Angostura Bitters. It's kind of a slight twist on a Manhattan. Give it a good stir over ice and strain it out into a chilled cocktail glass. Let me know how it works out for you. Cheers!
You, Sir, are the Liberace of Libations! The Mandrake of Martinis! The Houdini of Hooch! I have to share my one and only experience with a Singapore Sling. I was with my British son-in-law at the Victoria Falls Hotel in Zimbabwe. I ordered a Singapore Sling.

Bartenders have been shaking gin forever. You stir when cocktails are made up entirely of spirits. When they have fruit juice, cream, or eggs involved, you shake. Cheers!
When the second one is a 'Straights Sling', what is then a 'Gin Sling', a 'Gin Sour' or even a 'Gin Fizz'? 😳🤔 Could one say, that a 'Straights Sling' is a more sophisticated variation of a mix of these three?
A Gin Sling (late 19th century) was first described in print as a bittered sling. Before the addition of bitters, a sling was spirts, sugar water, and sometimes lemon. A Gin Sour is similiar, made with gin, lemon juice, sugar syrup, bitters and an optional egg white. A Gin Fizz is a sour with the addition of carbonated water and is.much the same as a Tom Collins, but is strained into a glass without ice. A Tom Collins is served over ice.
@@BarTalkCocktails Thanks mate, for this thorough response! ✌️ So a 'Straights Sling' is composed of multiple spirits then, I would assume. Keep up the good work! 😎👍
