Inspired by William Farquhar’s (Singapore’s first British Resident and Commandant) Natural History Drawings, Nutmeg & Clove is unveiling a whole new cocktail menu.

William Farquhar’s research into Singapore’s national history is compiled in the book “Natural History Drawings: The Complete William Farquhar Collection, Malay Peninsula 1803-1818”, which features 477 illustrations of Singapore’s flora and fauna. The King and Queen, The Galangal Beer, Oh My Jasmine, and Bay Side pay homage to this collection with each drink featuring either native herbs, spices, fruits, and flowers.

Each of the four cocktails is local twist on a classic. A twist on the Milk Punch, The King and Queen, is named after the King and Queen of fruits, durian and mangosteen, which are used in this drink. The Galangal Beer, a take on the Moscow Mule, is a spicy mix of Mount Gay Black Barrel infused with galangal, house-made spiced pear syrup, fresh lime and housemade galangal ginger beer. Oh My Jasmine features housemade jasmine syrup, and matcha is a spin on a Scotch Sour; while the Bay Side uses Botanist Gin infused with bay leaves for a herbal take on the South Side. (Mar 2018)
