3/4 oz Lime Juice
3/4 oz Pineapple Juice
1/4 oz Cherry Heering
1/4 oz Cointreau
1 tsp Grenadine
1 dash Angostura Bitters
Build in a tall glass, fill with crushed ice, and swizzle to mix and chill. Garnish with a small pineapple top (omit).
One of the drinks from the Mixology Monday Swizzle wrap-up was a riff on the Singapore Sling. The drink was created and presented by the Kitchen Shamanism blog out of Sweden, and I understood the love-hate relationship with the classic. Here, the Singapore Express removed the soda water, scaled down certain of the dominant flavors like the Cherry Heering, and of course converted it into a Swizzle for the event.

This a Singapore sling with less heering and pineapple .... please don't say there should be soda in a Singapore sling ... Blasphemy!! ;-)
Imbibe, Wondrich, Saveur, and plenty others list soda water. No one can agree on an exact recipe (and some doubted that it was Heering but that it was kirsch). The minority of recipes lacked soda water. Just curious what your preferred recipe and source are?
And this recipe bothered me more that it lacked Benedictine in the mix.
