The Singaporean chapter of seminal industry favourite Employees Only arrives at Terrible Baby for one night only this Thursday. Employees Only Singapore was ranked No 89 on Asia\u2019s 50 Best Bars last year, thanks to its potent combination of easy sips and high-energy hospitality. Cocktails on the night will include Dilly, Don\u2019t Dally, a combination of gin, falernum, home-made camomile cordial, botanicals, basil and lemon juice, all milk-washed for texture. The Nightshade supplements tequila blanco with blueberry shrub, peach bitters and Perrier for a light, long sip.<\/p>\n

C108 takes its coffee-by-day, cocktails-by-night mission to the next level, having updated its Creator\u2019s Point of View menu of signatures earlier this week. When the original menu launched last June<\/span>, it was designed around updating classics based on the stories that inspired them. To wit, new menu entries include the visually striking Cuba Cola, derived from the Cuba Libre: a \u201cliquid monument to post-war Havana\u201d combining Cuban rum and American cola. The Cuba Cola uses Havana rum and rounds out the flavour with green soda, cola syrup, bitter melon and citrus.<\/div>\n
For the more spirit-forward inclined, the Mi-Roni combines gin, miso-infused vermouth, sencha tea and Campari, with the menu notes observing that \u201cwhile the drink is a masterpiece of Italian culture, its modern global popularity often bridges diverse cultures through artful variations\u201d.<\/p>\n
