The Singapore Sling is a cocktail that is generally considered to have been created around 1915 by Ngiam Tong Boon, a bartender working at the Long Bar in Raffles Hotel in Singapore, but it's origins may have begun at least 20 years earlier. It seems that there is a lot of disagreement over what constitutes an original Singapore Sling but I say, "Who cares?"
