Singapore Sling (Singapore Sling)
This cocktail was invented by bartender Ngiam Tong Boon in the early 20th century while working at the Long Bar of the Raffles Hotel in Singapore. This red, sweet wine is made with pineapple juice, gin, Cointreau and other ingredients.
At Long Bar in Raffles Hotel in Singapore, visitors can sit at the colonial-era bar bar, eat peanuts, and enjoy cocktails like this while throwing shells on the smooth bar.
Martini
This prestigious drink was invented in the United States and is traditionally made with gin, dry vermouth and garnished with gin. Made from olives, its fame is probably thanks to Ian Fleming's James Bond, thus gaining an unshakable classic status in cocktails.
New York City’s landmark Algonquin Hotel offers the world’s most expensive martinis.
This $1,000 martini is strictly for the rich and crazy. The martinis served there are still regular martinis, except that the garnished olives are replaced by half-carat diamonds. If you go there, be sure to check out New York's oldest bartender, Hoy Wong. The latest news is that he is 94 years old and still making drinks for tourists there.
The Pi-a Colada
Legend has it that this drink was invented by Ramón “Monchito” Romero, a bartender at the Caribbean Hilton, after three months of experimentation. The original brewing recipe includes white rum, pineapple juice and creamy coconut juice. The Puerto Rican government declared this to the world as Puerto Rico's national drink in 1978 to show its contribution to the invention of this drink.
In the Oasis Bar of the Caribbean Hilton Hotel in San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico, there is the classic charm and chic good times of the past 50 years, which is the birthplace of Pi-a Colada.
The Daiquiri
Like Puerto Rico, Cuba also has its own sweet cocktail. Like other legendary cocktails, the origins of liqueur are controversial and shrouded in mythical fantasy. One theory is that some American mining engineers working in San Diego invented the drink in the 20th century, although the recipe of rum, lemon juice and syrup appears to have existed in the 18th century. Kennedy and Hemingway were both great lovers of this special spirit.
Go to the El Floradita Bar in Cuba, where it originated, to taste the classic frozen lip gloss bar. Hemingway used to hang around here, and today the bar still serves liqueur and has a bronze statue of Hemingway leaning on the bar with a book next to him.
Sake (Sake)
Sake, also called rice wine, is Japan’s national drink. It has many grades, rich flavors and its origins are very colorful. Perhaps many tourists to Japan think that they will drink a cup of hot sake when they go to Tokyo (especially on a cold night). What they never dreamed of is that drinking high-end sake can make people feel cold. The sake website has a concise but comprehensive series of descriptions of different types of sake.
Interestingly, sake is less popular among younger generations, but shōchū (a white spirit distilled from grains and sweet potatoes) is becoming increasingly popular.
