It's time for one of the world's most well known cocktails. The Singapore Sling. And according to me, the best version of it :)
This is a spicy (think sweet spices) fruit punch that I believe every bartender will make at some point in their career. I've had it ordered at several different occasions both in Sweden and the United States throughout my career.
Singapore Sling
1 dash Angostura Bitters
1/4 oz (7.5ml) Cherry Heering
1/4 oz (7.5ml) Orange Liqueur
1/4 oz (7.5ml) Dom Benedictine
1/4 oz (7.5ml) Grenadine
1/2 oz (15ml) Lime Juice
1 1/2 oz (45ml) Pineapple Juice
1 1/2 oz (45ml) Gin
Shake well and serve in a Hurricane glass, garnish with cherries, pineapple fronds etc. Sit back and watch the sunset.

This is the video I mention of how they make the drink at the Raffles Hotel in Singapore

This is really great, man. I like how you point out the difference between Luxardo Maraschino Liqueur and Cherry Heering! That is legit informative!
Thank you very much! Yeah...I know from experience that once people find out what Maraschino is, they often think that they can substitute the Heering. 🤷🏻♂️ Not the same 😁
I love it. The Singapore sling. It is definitely one of my favorites.
Are you just saying that now to be nice? 😁
Loving the history as always!! Great job Johan!!
Thank you Mr.Mitchell!!
I've had a few Singapore Slings. But once, it was the greatest drink I've ever tasted. Even in the same bar, I've never been able to recapture it.
I think it's about the skill of the person making it.
What bar do you go to?
Love the tip about blue cheese
I hope you like it!!
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! Number 1!!!
Oooh man, this reminds me of a story. A few years ago, these two guys at the bar were literally yelling at each other at the top of their lungs debating whether this cocktail should be recategorized as a tiki instead of a sling. Like they almost came to blows. Seriously. At one point Team Tiki guy goes to the bathroom and when he does Team Sling guy guzzles Team Tiki guys drink and the runs out of the bar. Haha! I’ve never seen something like that in my 20 years. 🤣🤣🤣
Hahahahahahaha...yeah, the stuff we see 🤣🤣🤣
That looks really great. It is in my Schedule for the end of the month, and you just made me even more excited. Thanks.
Regarding the orange liqueuer what do you think about it? I see it quite often, but it is one of the most expensive brands in France, being pricier than Cointreau, Mandarine Napoleon and Grand Marnier. Maybe only Clement Orange liqueuer is more expensive. So I have never used it and I am curious what do you think about it; Cheers.
Thank you Peter!
I really like Combier, I've worked with it a lot. That and Clement actually. But since the original Singapore Sling uses Cointreau I would just go with that if you have it. I haven't tested them side by side in a while, but I'd be surprised if there was a big difference. Especially in a cocktail like this with a million ingredients.
Great video!!! Cherry Heering is like liquid gold!!!! I have to try this cocktail. It looks to tasty to pass up!! CHEERS!!!!
Thank you Tim! You have to. And try the Cherry Herring with a piece of blue cheese. Delicious!
@@WhiskeySugarBitters Nice. I'm storebound!!!!
@@WhiskeySugarBitters Once, I was making a cocktail for my wife and didn't have cherry Heering, and I subbed it with maraschino liqueur. She noticed IMMEDIATLEY!!!
@@TheSpiritoftheCocktail Yeah...just like I say in the video, they're not interchangeable 😁
WILD. Amazing. I hate using pineapple juice (or juice in general), but I will absolutely try this.
You should! It is still a classic cocktail that is still around 🙂
hmm thanks for the tip. I just got a chunk of blue cheese, will need to try the cherry heering with it.
Do it! Let me know what you think. I remember having it at a Cherry Heering tasting years ago, and it was delicious! At least to me :)
Looks yummy!
It is! Have you ever had one?
@@WhiskeySugarBitters Sure, but not that often!
@@cocktailswithlele4042 haha, yeah, it's not the kind of cocktail you have everyday :)
When you watch my videos I too use a lot of booze. You did an excellent job. Very informative. I hope you drank it all. NICE ONE
Of course I did! Always do 😉 I will have a look! Thank you Karen Ann!
This might be surprising but I have never had this or made it in 10 years of bartending
No, but give it another 7 years, it'll happen 😉
I'm just speaking from my experiences working in Sweden at various establishments (nightclubs, hotels, cocktail bars, dive bars and everything in between) to New York City, working in upscale restaurants and hotels to more small cocktail driven places. I've had it ordered several times throughout the years. Maybe I've just been in the right (or wrong lol) spot! 😁🤷🏻♂️
@@WhiskeySugarBitters haha I live in Iowa and we don't see much variety. But agree 7 more years. Lol
@@carl_busch I wouldn't know, never been there. Not yet!
Lol, hopefully not 7 more years...unless that's what you want! 😁
I just commented to you on my wife's page Maui Karen Ann sorry about that. I really enjoyed your video I like using a lot of booze myself
😃 No worries! I'll go have a look and see what you said.
I make these at home, and wouldn't hesitate to order one at a tiki bar. I would probably think twice about ordering it at a regular bar, unless they had it on the menu. I may order one from you just for the cringe!
Haha, don't do it..I'm warning you! 😜
