If you're looking for a nice cool drink on a hot day, the Singapore Sling is a wonderful choice. The Singapore Sling was created in Singapore's famous Raffles Hotel. According to some people, it made its debut in 1915; others say it was invented in 1913 or perhaps before 1910. The original recipe was lost and forgotten, so there is some uncertainty about which ingredients should be used, but you can count on Coca--the timid yet highly professional bartender at ReBAR , the restaurant-disco-bar venue in Tainan City--to produce a memorable drink. He'll present you with an ice-filled collins glass with juicy fruit slices floating on colorful liquor. It's easy on the eyes, as well as the taste buds!
