Benedictine 1/2 oz. brandy 2 oz. gin 1 1/2 oz. club soda I haven't tried this, and I'm not personally a fan of gin, but it sounds like it'd be good. Anyone know how accurate this recipe is? I work for a major cruise line, specifically in securing hotel space. The Raffles Singapore is one of the properties that I deal with. I am interested in whether or not the Grog Log recipe is good, but also if any of you have stories/anecdotes of the Raffles that you'd like to share. Thanks! Erik
