You’ve tried a Singapore Sling, now try our August 2021 Cocktail of the Month: Craft Gin Club’s Singapore Fling!
In this creative cocktail recipe, which has been invented by Maria, Craft Gin Club’s Master Mixologist, the heady, uniquely Singaporean flavours of Brass Lion Singapore Dry Gin, Craft Gin Club’s August 2021 Gin of the Month, are combined the sumptuous, plump, juicy delight that is Martin Frobisher’s Cherry Juice. Our bespoke Singapore Fling cocktail syrup then adds fruity tones that take the cocktail to the next level.
Finished with a touch of fresh lime juice, this cocktail will transport you to the tropical climes of the Lion CIty with every sip.
The Singapore Sling cocktail recipe is said to have been invented by the noted bartender Ngiam Tong Boon in the early 20th Century at the Long Bar in the Raffles Hotel, Singapore. The traditional Singapore Sling cocktail recipe calls for gin to be shaken with cherry brandy liqueur, Bénédictine (a herbal liqueur made in France), Cointreau, pineapple juice, lime juice, grenadine and Angostura Bitters.

Brass Lion Singapore Dry Gin
Our August 2021 Gin of the Month, this craft gin is distilled in the heart of Singapore at the Brass Lion Distillery. It’s a wonderful expression of its home that’s brimming with notes of mandarin, pomelo, torch ginger flower, tamarind and chrysanthemum. That delectably complex mix of floral, citrus and spice notes make it perfect for use in fruitier (like the Fling above) or sour cocktails. Give it a go in this Mango Crush cocktail recipe or this Calamansi Gimlet and you will not be disappointed.
Martin Frobisher’s Cherry Juice
The quality of Martin Frobisher’s fruit juices are second to none and their bold, authentic fruit flavours make them exceptional cocktail ingredients. For our Singapore Fling recipe, we just had to use their Cherry Juice. It’s bursting with fruity cherry notes that work wonderfully with the rich palate of Asian tones that can be found in Brass Lion Singapore Dry Gin.
