10 Delicious & Insta-worthy Cocktails to Check Out In Singapore

Start your evening in style at our bars across the Lion city. Be it at the heart of the bustling downtown, a fine museum or a rooftop bar close to nature, our cocktail programs will ensure a sensory cocktail experience. Here are our top picks:

#1 Monkey Affair
Monkey Affair is a classic representation of Mitzo, a mod-Chinese restaurant & cocktail bar located at central Orchard Road. Combining Chinese element in their signature cocktail, Mitzo features a selection of drinks paying homage to local traditions. Here, ingredients of Chinese roots such as preserved mandarin orange peel, goji berry syrup and herbal soda are added to this Monkey Shoulder Whisky based drink. It is playful, fruity and refreshing, a sure head-turner.
Location: Mitzo, Grand Park Orchard

#2 She So Fine
The quintessential mojito underwent a makeover with osmanthus flower-infused Sailor Jerry Rum, Shiso liqueur, plum bitters, lime juice, sugar syrup and topped with ginger ale. This poise and sophisticated drink is a popular choice among Mitzo's drinks menu.
Location: Mitzo, Grand Park Orchard

#3 Summer Botanic
Do not leave Singapore without trying one of the bar's signature concoctions Summer Botanic, an ode to the garden city and a refreshing quencher at this sunny climate. The tipple mixes Chamomile tea infused Grant's whisky with apricot brandy, rose & apple syrup, lemon juice, peach bitters and cranberry soda and tops off with kaffir lime leaves.
Location: Mitzo, Grand Park Orchard

#4
#4 was designed to awaken curiosity and inspire guests to question what they are told. The complex drink is black in colour, with layers of flavours from the blend of agave cooked and redistilled with strawberry, cacao-infused spirit, pure milk vodka, bamboo charcoal and a salt & pepper finish. Served over ice with salty strawberry powder, the final product is fruity, balanced with notes of smoke, earth, salt and bitterness.
Location: Smoke & Mirrors, National Gallery Singapore

#5 Picassos's Pencil
Travel back to primary school with the intriguing Picasso's Pencil, designed to celebrate flavours of Picasso's native southern Spain. A true artist, Picasso's first word was noted as “piz,” short for “lapiz,” the Spanish word for pencil. The aromas and flavours of the drink come to life through distilled pencil wood, combined with smoky agave, preserved lemon, fruity Manzanilla sherry, apple vinegar and tonic.
Location: Smoke & Mirrors, National Gallery Singapore

#6 Peel & See
Moving in a more culinary direction, the banana-infused Peel & See is inspired by Andy Warhol's iconic piece for The Velvet Underground. The unlikely combination of banana, miso and olive oil are integrated into the gin base through a multi-step process of sous vide, dehydration and fat-washing, then combined with quinine aperitif and served with an additional dash of olive oil for garnish.
Location: Smoke & Mirrors, National Gallery Singapore

#7 Alexandra Sunset

#8 Hot Melons
Watermelon is muddled with chilli padi for a tingling touch of heat, then shaken with rum and chocolate bitters before being strained over a frozen soursop sorbet.

A refreshing cocktail of freshly shaved Japanese Cucumber, strawberries and Italian Basil, stirred with Pimm's gin, and citrus juices, a perfect drink for the warm Singapore weather.
