Was 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.

Liqueurs mostly began in the laboratories of pharmacists as medicines or at homes as ways of preserving seasonal fruits, or were created by monks in their monasteries. and then took off as fragrant, flavourful liqueurs, either filtered to be clear or cloudy.
