How to Make a Singapore Sling Cocktail

Singapore Sling is one of the most frequently heard cocktail names in the world today. For many people, however, it is also a drink that they've never had the pleasure to experience. This stems largely from the fact that most people simply don't know how to make a genuine Singapore Sling.
