Singapore Sling

A classic cocktail that is light and refreshing. We skipped the Benedictine and used orange juice instead; which may explain the sherberty flavour.  

Singapore Sling
------------------------------------------

1 cup ice
1 1/2 oz gin
1/2 oz cherry brandy
1/4 oz triple sec
1/4 oz Benedictine® liqueur
4 oz pineapple juice
1/2 oz lime juice
1/2 Grenadine syrup
1 cup ice
2 maraschino cherries to garnish

Fill a tall cocktail glass, like a Collins, with 1 cup of ice and place inside the freezer.

In a cocktail shaker combine the gin, cherry brandy, triple sec, Benedictine, pineapple juice, lime juice and Grenadine. Add the other 1 cup of ice, cover and shake well until chilled. Strain into the prepared cocktail glass.

Garnish with the cherries or a slice of pineapple and a cherry.

Have a great weekend everyone! - JD
