The Classic Singapore Sling Cocktail Recipe
- 3 mins
- Prep: 3 mins,
- Cook: 0 mins
- Yield: 1 serving
The Singapore sling is a classic gin-based cocktail that every cocktail connoisseur needs to taste. The story goes that it was developed by Ngiam Tong Boon at the Raffles Hotel in Singapore sometime around 1915. It is a smooth, slow, and semi-sweet cocktail with a complex flavor that has remained a favorite for over 100 years.

The problem with the Singapore sling is that few people can agree on the recipe. You'll find many references to the "original" Raffles recipe and few of them are the same. The disparities seem to have begun as early as the drink's first decade and they've only grown over the years. It is really up to each drinker to decide which version of this famous cocktail they prefer most.

This recipe is one of the newer variations. Others include anything from pineapple to grenadine or liqueurs like Cointreau. We're going to explore a few of those options, including recipes shared by today's top cocktail historians. No matter how you end up taking your Singapore sling, it is a fascinating cocktail that is well worth your time to explore.

What You'll Need
- 1 1/2 ounces gin
- 1 ounce Benedictine
- 1 ounce lime juice
- 1/4 ounce simple syrup
- 2 ounces club soda
- 1/2 ounce cherry brandy, kirsch, or Cherry Heering
- Garnish: lemon slice and maraschino cherry
How to Make It
1. Pour the gin, Benedictine, lime juice, and simple syrup into a cocktail shaker filled with ice cubes.
2. Shake well.
3. Strain into a highball glass over fresh ice.
4. Pour in the club soda.
5. Float the cherry brandy on top by pouring it over the back of a bar spoon.
6. Garnish with the lemon slice and cherry.
Tip: While floating the cherry brandy on top of the drink is fun, it's not necessary and not likely a method used in the sling's early days.

Feel free to add that to the shaker as well.

The "Original" Singapore Sling?

In 2015, the Raffles Hotel Singapore celebrated the 100th anniversary of the Singapore sling. It is an iconic cocktail and the showpiece of the hotel's Long Bar to this day.

The problem really is that Ngiam Tom Boon's original recipe is under great dispute. According to Raffles, however, his intent was clear: to produce a cocktail that looked like juice and had a rosy color that would appeal to women. It was, as the hotel notes, "a socially acceptable punch for the ladies."

Further, Raffles notes that the Singapore Sling is a gin cocktail and its primary ingredient is pineapple (something lacking in the modern recipe above). It also includes grenadine, lime juice, Benedictine, and—for the "pretty pink hue"—cherry brandy and Cointreau. Note how they don't mention grenadine's contribution to the color, but that's a technicality (which these sling recipes are filled with).

That really doesn't help us with the "original" recipe, so we turn instead to cocktail historians. In the book, "Imbibe!," David Wondrich tells a completely different story. He points out that the Singapore sling may actually have been around since 1897 or so. It was a popular hangover cure and general cure-all for anything that ails you. This clearly contradicts Raffles' historical claims.

The cocktail sleuth and author dug up a reference to the recipe written down from the Singapore Cricket Club. This version pours 1 ounce each cherry brandy, gin, Benedictine, and lime juice.

Wondrich recommends stirring it with ice, then finishing it off with 1 to 2 ounces of sparkling water and Angostura bitters. The gin? Go with a traditional London dry or Old Tom. The suggested garnish is a lime twist.

Did you notice the lack of pineapple juice? This was the "key" ingredient in Raffles' recipe, so that may have been how Ngiam "improved" on a popular drink found throughout Singapore at the time.

Popular Singapore Sling Variations

To further open up your Singapore Sling possibilities, Wondrich also notes that you can play around with that formula. For instance, he dug up a few recipes from the 1930s that used the red wine claret or sloe gin to give the sling its signature color. When doing this, he recommends some adjustments: cutting back on the lime and Benedictine and adding more gin.

We can then turn to another trusted source, Gary "Gaz" Regan and his book, "The Joy of Mixology," which is another essential for a bartender's library. He shares two recipes and they also represent the spectrum of possible Singapore Slings.

In Regan's Singapore Sling No. 2 recipe, pineapple juice is used at a full 2-ounce pour, equaling that of Beefeater gin. It also adds 1/2 ounce each Cherry Heering and triple sec with 1/4 ounce Benedictine and 3/4 ounce lime juice. It's topped with Angostura bitters and club soda. This is apparently a recipe found on a Raffles coaster, though it lacked the measurements so experienced bartenders had to wing it to come up with these recommendations.

The Singapore Sling No. 1 in Regan's book is completely different and pineapple is excluded. Instead, it uses 2 ounces gin, 1/2 ounce each Benedictine and kirsch, 3/4 ounce lemon juice, and both orange and Angostura bitters. As with most slings, it is topped with club soda.

Which Sling Recipe Is for You?

Quite honestly, the five Singapore Sling recipes shared here do not even begin to reflect the many variations you can find. There are too many to count and they rarely agree.

To make matters worse, many drinkers try to replicate the look of the sling they were served at Raffles and inundate it with too much red (typically grenadine), which can easily make the drink too sweet. Keep in mind that the appearance of any cocktail is not as important as the taste and the color may be off for any number of reasons. For instance, you may be using the colorless kirsch while the bar is using Cherry Heering or a cherry brandy with a similar deep red.

The goal is to find a Singapore sling that you enjoy. Chasing the original recipe or going for the "right color" is going to end in heartache and a good-sized headache. Some of these recipes have a drier profile while others are sweeter, and you can always make your own adjustments. Why not? Everyone else did!

The good news is that most Singapore sling recipes agree, for the most part, on similar ingredients. That means you can save a little money and stock your bar with the essentials while playing around with these recipes until you find your ideal formula. Write it down so you can duplicate it later, then sit back and enjoy this iconic cocktail.

Singapore Sling

No discussion on cocktails is complete without discussing the Singapore Sling. The history of the Singapore Sling was thoroughly documented by Mr. Ted “Dr. Cocktail” Haigh in the Journal of Mixology (a book in which I also contributed an article). However, this post is going to deal with flavour and why the Singapore Sling is a great example of a creative cocktail. If you want to impress guests, friends, family or customers, throw away your old recipe and try the following Singapore Sling recipe.

The Singapore Sling, when done properly, is a well-balanced drink with tons of flavour. Most clubs and bars that serve this drink have disgraced the Singapore Sling by taking some shortcuts and passing it off like a sling. For example, on a popular cocktail website, the recipe for a Singapore Sling is as follows:

1½ oz cherry brandy

1½ oz grenadine syrup

splash sweet and sour mix

Fill with club soda

(Danger: do not make this, may cause esophageal expulsion or disappointment)

This recipe is incredibly quick to make when you are tending the bar, but it lacks the character of a true Singapore Sling. Plus, this combination of ingredients isn’t all that appealing.

The recipe to the left is very close to the original, but the fact is that the original recipe was lost, so a recipe similar to the original Singapore Sling was created, through some research. Making this drink for people takes a little bit longer than the Impostor version, but the results are well worth the effort. The difference is between a fine dining experience and McDonald’s. If you just feel like a quick drink, by all means whip up the Impostor Singapore Sling, but if you have the time, make the classic version.

When I make a Singapore Sling, I like to use quality ingredients. For example, I will use a good quality gin, like Plymouth Gin or Tanqueray, a good cherry brandy like Cherry Marnier or Bols Cherry Brandy. Use Cointreau, or a decent triple sec and always use fresh juices when possible and use Pomegranate Juice or syrup instead of grenadine.

The great thing about cocktails is that you can modify them for your personal preference, just don’t use a name already being used, it creates confusion. This is what happened to the Singapore Sling and the Mai Tai and many other drinks. Now I’m sure someone is going to say that the version I make isn’t following the original recipe. I believe it follows the “spirit” of the recipe. For example Cherry Marnier is a cherry brandy, actually a cherry flavoured cognac. The use of pomegranate juice is probably close to what the used in 1915, plus most grenadine sold today is a coloured sugar solution flavoured with vanilla and almond extract. Not exactly the same.

As a bartender, consistency is what creates a great experience. If you went to the aforementioned fine restaurant and you received a Happy Meal and a bill for $100 you wouldn’t be too happy. So, a good bartender will always stick to the original recipe.

Give this Singapore Sling recipe a try, I guarantee you won’t be disappointed.

Singapore Sling

The Singapore Sling was the go to cocktail for ladies at the start of the 20 th Century. The drink is a leggy, vibrant-pink damsel with a fruity taste and a mid-summer vibe. Garnish with just a cherry for that high-society vibe, or tone down the fancy-pants look with a cocktail umbrella and a sparkly straw. Your drink, your call.

How to make a Singapore Sling:

7.5ml Benedictine D.O.M.

15ml cherry brandy liqueur

15ml freshly squeezed pineapple juice

15ml lime juice

1 dash aromatic bitters

Add all ingredients into a cocktail shaker and shake with ice. Strain into a Hurricane glass and top up with sparkling water.

(Adapted from Difford, Simon. Diffordsguide Cocktails, The Bartender’s Bible).

An abridged, inebriated history:

The Singapore Sling as it is known today, was created by Mr Ngiam Tong Boon in the Raffles Hotel at the start of the 20 th Century. (One of the earliest references to a sling is from 1897, almost 20 years before the Raffles created their famous version). His clientele were a glamorous and well-heeled bunch and were rightly appreciate of this now classic cocktail, which was very much geared towards the female market. Following the turn of the century in colonial Singapore, it was common to see the gentlemen nursing glasses of gin or whisky. Unfortunately for the ladies, etiquette dictated they could not consume alcohol in public, and for the sake of public modesty, fruit juices and teas were their preferred beverage. The young Ngiam thus saw a niche in the market and decided to create a cocktail that looked like a fruit juice… The rest, as they say, is history.

Established in 1887, Raffles was once the ultimate holiday residence for the rich and famous. The fashionable décor, tropical gardens and exotic touch appealed to wealthy travellers, and provided a more British respite from it’s South-East Asia location.

The Long Bar Ngiam worked in was equally charming, with illustrations of flapper girls and suited young men adorning the walls. Today’s tourists flock to the bar to stake a claim in the history of a place that played host to Charlie Chaplin, W. Somerset Maugham and Noel Coward, amongst many other famous faces.

The original recipe was lost in the 1930s, causing dispute over what makes an authentic Singapore Sling and – as with most, if not all historic cocktails – there is dispute over what formula is exact and whether or not pineapple juice should be included. The only constant factor seems to be the dash of Benedictine.

In recent years, London based Gin makers Sipsmith have created a limited edition gin especially for the Raffles Hotel, along with a signature serve that hopes to re-engage new patrons with the historic recipe by adapting it to modern tastes.

Singapore Sling

“The Singapore Sling is one of my favorite tropical cocktails,” says Julie Reiner. Most drink histories credit the recipe to a bartender named Ngiam Tong Boon, who’s said to have mixed the first Sling around 1915 at the Long Bar inside Singapore’s Raffles Hotel.Slideshow: Terrific Tropical Drinks
