Was Singapore Sling invented to disguise the fact that Women were drinking alcohol in Singapore?
MOREWas Singapore Sling invented to disguise the fact that Women were drinking alcohol in Singapore?
The answer is a resounding no. The Singapore Sling was actually invented by a bartender at the Raffles Hotel in Singapore in 1915. His name was Ngiam Tong Boon and the drink was created as an homage to the ladies who frequent the hotel lobby and also, It is said that he created it to appeal to the many British soldiers stationed in Singapore during World War I. There's no evidence that Ngiam Tong Boon ever intended for his cocktail to be anything other than a refreshing and delicious beverage enjoyed by all.

Diesel Fuel Recipe
Combine and shake ingredients over ice. Strain into a shot glass.
The drink has been around since the early 1900s, and it is said that it was popularized by German soldiers in World War I. Originally, it was just a Jagermeister and Rum shot shaken with ice and strained into a shot glass. But over the years, it has been transformed into a Diesel Fuel cocktail.
The drink is named after the diesel engine oil that was used in World War I. The oil was thick, and it made a loud noise when it was shaken. So the soldiers called the drink Diesel Fuel because of the sound it made.
Most cocktails and shots named after fuel, like Diesel Fuel, Rocket Fuel or Jet Fuel have the origin of their names in their visual similarity to the fuel in question and have interesting history behind them.
