PINK SLING-A-TINI - The Singapore Sling Goes Diva for Think Pink!



The Pink Sling-a-Tini is my take on the Singapore Sling that was created by Ngiam Tong Boon at the Long Bar of the Raffles Hotel in Singapore. Originally called the Straits Sling or possibly derived from it this was a popular drink during the 1920s and then again in the 1950s.

I believe the original recipe used Kirsch instead of the Cherry Heering and you can try this recipe both ways - I prefer the Cherry Heering myself.

This is a very sweet "girly" drink but don't be taken in by it's pink color and the sweetness - this one packs a serious punch!

PLEASE DRINK RESPONSIBLY & DRIVE RESPONSIBLY
