Can you believe we’re celebrating Singapore’s birth? That alone deserves a toast, and if you find yourself at National Gallery Singapore, you can try head bartender Jorge Conde’s Rojak Milk Punch. Its base is the newly-launched Rojak gin mixed with spiced pechuga, milk, citrics, ginger torch aroma for piquant undertones, and topped with peanuts for additional texture. Available until August 31.

You have the whole month of August to relish the Singa-star, made especially for the upcoming celebration. It’s a potent drink of Monkey 47 gin and Cinzano Bianco vermouth, but the alcohol is tempered with the addition of blueberry merlot tea infused with grapefruit, watermelon and mint syrups and pink grapefruit juice. It's finished off with soda and a slice of grapefruit.
