Singapore Sling
This classic Tiki cocktail is vital in the catalog of essential gin standards. For our rendition, we start with the basics and adapt. NOLET'S Silver's botanicals shine in combination with the herbal elements. Because this recipe is ingredient-heavy, it is a fantastic large-format celebratory punch. We have cited several options for substitutions to encourage experimentation and personalization with this cocktail. The ratios may need adjusting for sweetness, so we encourage tasting it along the way.

0.25 oz. Benedictine (or Herbal Liqueur like Amaro, Yellow Chartreuse, or Campari)
0.25 oz. Grand Marnier (or Orange Liqueur like Cointreau or Triple Sec)

1 oz. Pineapple Juice (fresh is preferable)
0.5 oz. Fresh Lime Juice
1 dash Bitters
Club Soda to top off
Citrus Wheel & Cocktail Cherry for Garnish

1/4 cup Benedictine (or Herbal Liqueur like Amaro, Yellow Chartreuse, or Campari)
