Comments:
The only thing anyone seems to
agree on about this cocktail is
that it was probably created in
1915 and probably in the
Raffles Hotel Bar in Singapore
and probably by Ngiam Tong
Boon. There are probably a
dozen camps of Sling Loyalists.
Our apologies to the “must
include pineapple” crowd, but
we think the taste of the above
is more interesting. Please try
the Singapore Sling #2, also
included, and make up
your own minds.
